Carrot Cake as Wedding Cake

I was wondering if its possible to have a 4 tier wedding cake with only carrot cake?

Oh yes carrot cake is my all time favorite wedding cake. I make it often for brides. All of the carrot cake recipes on this website work well for a 4 tiered cake.

The secret to a wedding cake, especially if it is heavy, is the internal structure, whether it be wooden dowels or metal Cake Stackers. The doweling keeps each tier from weighing down on the tier below.

You may want to check the Cake Stackers out. They are amazing. Here is a link to my review of these amazing wedding cake stands. I use them now for perfectly centered and straight tiers and safe delivery too.



The very best of the carrot cake recipes is this one here. It has pineapple, coconut, walnuts and pureed carrots. I have used this one exclusively, for over 25 years now and everyone who tries it says "it's amazing" including folks who say they don't like carrot cake.

This moist carrot cake recipe is another great choice. The pecan cream filling makes this one unique. It does call for raisins, but you can omit them if you don't like them. I personally don't. In some ways this cake is much like the very best recipe above as it has coconut and pineapple included.

Here is one that a reader submitted that is classic with grated carrots. She claims it is the best ever Maybe it is, I have not baked it as of yet. If you do try it please let us know what you think.

And another classic original carrot cake recipe with grated carrots.

I don't see any reason for you not to use the carrot cake for your 4 tiered wedding cake, as I have been doing them for years without an issue.

Please add your wedding cake photos to the website when you are finished. Here is a link to the form to do so or you can add it to the wedding cake contest.
