You can still incorporate them into your cake theme. Twist ivy round the tiers, create a succulent centrepiece or slip some greenery between the tiers for a fresh look that\u2019s in keeping with your day. Or maybe you want to incorporate other elements. Flowers combined with fruit, macarons and a drip look gorgeous. And don\u2019t think flowers means you have to go fully traditional \u2013 add colour, personality and fun if you want!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10291079\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10291079\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-10291079 size-full\" title=\"Five ways to do floral wedding cakes\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes.jpg\" alt=\"Five ways to do floral wedding cakes\" width=\"900\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes.jpg 900w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes-770x342.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes-500x222.jpg 500w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes-293x130.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10291079\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10291079 size-full\" title=\"Five ways to do floral wedding cakes\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes.jpg\" alt=\"Five ways to do floral wedding cakes\" width=\"900\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes.jpg 900w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes-770x342.jpg 770w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes-500x222.jpg 500w, https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/twisted-on-trad-cakes-293x130.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/noscript> Something a little different<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Feeling inspired?
