We saw tons of stars in bold metallics at the 2016 Met Gala, and Lady Gaga took the trend one step further (no surprise there!) presenting fashion designer Donatella Versace with a piece of gold art that literally took the cake. The three-tier confection was covered in gold—perfectly fitting for the designer’s 61st birthday celebration. While this cake, adorned with spun-sugar flowers and embossed with Versace’s face on the front, could, understandably, be a bit bold for a wedding, these gold cakes below might just offer the perfect dose of decadence for your affair.
Solid Gold
All gold and perfect for an engagement on New Year’s Eve! 🍾
Pair fresh flowers with a gold-dipped statement to contrast the sleek metallic with a soft, natural touch.
Bold with Gold
Who said wedding cakes have to be all white? Not this client. Black and gold, bold and gorgeous. #amybeckcakedesign #chicagowedding #goldisthenewblack #sugarflowers
Who says a wedding cake has to be white? Try a black and white cake with gold accents for a luxe, formal dessert.

Off-Center Opulence
Gold dipped fondant with sugar flowers.
Reminiscent of childhood ice cream cones dipped asymmetrically in chocolate, this layered treat gets a sophisticated coat of gold.
Heart of Gold
This is STILL one of my favorite designs. Originally, I created this “Sparkle my Heart” cake for a client’s 30th birthday. Now I get to sit down with her again to design her wedding cake! #cantwait #sparkle #heart #cake #blackandwhitestripes #gold #glitter #blush #pink #fabulous #designer #edibleart #luxurycakes #customcakes #glam #marblecake #doublebarrel #delacremestudio #delacremestyle #theoriginal
If an all-gold cake isn’t your thing, little hints of gold (like these different-size hearts) are the perfect compromise.
Gatsby-Worthy Gold
“Too much of anything is bad, but too much Champagne is just right.” – F. Scott Fitzgerald Or cake. #amybeckcakedesign #thegreatgatsby
For a bold art deco vibe, adorn your cake with geometric gold designs that look straight out of the ’20s.
