Wedding Cake Transparent
When it comes to weddings, many things come to mind apart from the bride and groom. Among them, the cake has an important place. The cakes, which are almost the same length as the bride and groom, are cut with the help of a sword and the wedding continues from where it left off.
The cake has a history and a meaning. Before cutting the
cake at weddings, grains such as wheat and barley were poured over the bride's head, with the belief that it would bring peace and fertility to the house. The young girls around the bride, on the other hand, made an intense effort so that the grains that fell from the bride would hit them and their fortunes would flourish. The custom of throwing wheat at weddings, which started in the Roman period, was later renewed and turned into a cake cutting custom by the cooks of the age.
At that time, the bride and groom would kiss each other over these donuts, which were made into a heap in England. The pile of donuts was held high so that the newlyweds could live in prosperity. Then, in the 17th century, a French chef came to England. This chef simplified the tedious practice of piling cupcakes. Instead of individual buns, he simplified the wedding cake by making a tower of several large pieces that took the shape of a pyramid, stacked on top of each other.
The piece quickly gained worldwide fame and became fashionable in many European countries. European culinary art and wedding cakes, which developed with the advancing time, began to take on interesting and visual forms. After this change, cakes have been among the indispensables of weddings for a long time.
