1Cakes Fit for Celebrities
Getty ImagesJust like any engaged couple, a celebrity pair wants a cake that matches their personalities. Six cake bakeries sketched the cakes they would make for Lily Allen, Kate Moss, Natalie Portman, Hugh Hefner, Kate Hudson, and Jessica Simpson if they were asked to create a stunning confection for the celebs' big days.
Of course, sketches provide a path to the actual creative confections, like the stunning cake at left. For her fourth wedding, Ivana Trump ordered this 12-foot wedding cake from a German cake baker. The gold-trimmed confection reportedly weighed over 700 pounds!
2A Wedding Cake for Lily Allen
Lily Allen has a rad, funky personality, and her wedding cake should too. Melody from Sweet & Saucy Shop in Long Beach, California, dreamt up a three-tiered white cake with an incredible sugar-made fanned flower across a tall middle tier.

3A Wedding Cake for Kate Moss
Cake designer Amy from Vanilla Bake Shop in Santa Monica, California, decided that this tall four-tiered wedding cake would be perfect for Kate Moss's July 2 nuptials. With a leopard-print cake base and an edgy black applique sugar treatment, we think Moss and her rocker fiancé (Jamie Hince from The Kills) would approve.
4A Wedding Cake for Natalie Portman
We love the way Ana from Ana Parzych Custom Cakes in Cheshire, Connecticut, added sugar swags that appear to dance around the bottom two tiers — à la Natalie Portman's big Black Swan role.

5A Wedding Cake for Hugh Hefner
Although the word on the street is that Crystal Harris and Hugh Hefner have already hired their baker, we think they'd reconsider after seeing this sketch. Jay Muse from Lulu Cake Boutique in New York City and Scarsdale, New York, created this "Under The Sea"-themed wedding cake sketch incorporating the couple's color combo (pink and turquoise) by way of pink pearlized white-chocolate seashells, pearl-like bubbles, blue sugar waves, and sparkling edible crystals. The sugar birdcage on top pays homage to Crystal's love of birds.
6A Wedding Cake for Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson knows how to rock the red carpet in edgy couture designs, so Noddea Skidmore of Stiletto Sweets in Grand Rapids, Michigan, created this Art Deco-inspired cake with over-the-top details like a white-fondant sphere cake topper, a Swarovski crystal wrap (a nod to the Pucci dress Hudson wore at the 2010 SAG Awards), and crystal tassels (inspired by the Galliano gown she wore at the 2008 Fool's Gold premiere).

Cupcakes Couture of Manhattan Beach, California, wanted to capture Jessica Simpson's elegance and sophistication. A big purple flower is the focal point of this pretty petite white wedding cake, while the hanging Swarovski crystals give it a serious glam factor.
