Cakes From Around the World:
Wedding Cakes in France
Traditionally cream-filled choux pastry buns drizzled with caramel, known as 'croquembouche' are used as both a dessert and wedding cake in France. More elaborate gourmet cakes are made from stacked croquembouche or pastries, finished with whipped cream and shavings of white chocolate.
Although this is not wedding cake related, it is interesting to note that the bride's hope chest most likely originated
from the french word "trousseau" which means the bride's possessions collected for her marriage - items such as clothing and linens.
Another feature of the French wedding is the bridal path of laurel leaves. This would be similar to Americans and Canadians
paving a path of pretty rose petals. In fact, rose petal walkways are lovely
additions to any wedding and are better on the environment.

Little mini cakes or cup cakes are great instead of the huge wedding cake. They can be decorated quite nicely and allow everyone to have just the amount they wish.
