    We have just started researching wedding cakes and I love naked cakes that matches the rustic theme of our wedding! (Plus it's good for our budget too!!) Just that temperature would be a concern that the cake might not hold up as well compared to fondant ones, especially for our summer tent wedding. Let me know if I'm not the only one debating about this! Smiley smile

    I love cake in general but don't like too much frosting, so this one I would eat a lot of.

    Aesthetically it looks gorgeous but I prefer something a little sweeter.

    I love this, as I’m a fan of cake, but not a fan of icing... a little too rustic to fit in with our theme though!

    Love them! My friend is a talented baker & is making a single tier one special for us. I think they’re gorgeous with the natural colour being highlighted. Plus, I loathe fondant so it’s perfect. Something like this (but in 1 tier):

    Naked cakes love them. I don’t like the icing on cake so we are doing a simple naked cake.

    I think they’re all right. Especially when they’re spruced up with berries.

    Some naked cakes are more naked than others... for example, the one in this photo still looks like it's got a decent amount of icing on it... I hate super sugary icing, so less is more for me, but I also don't want dry cake....

    I'm gonna go with, I wouldn't say no to cake, but I'm not getting a naked cake Smiley laugh

    I really don’t like the naked cakes. I prefer the icing so that’s a big contributing factor

    I love the idea of a naked cake - but I also was always the kind of person that preferred the cake to the icing !

    I like them, but I'm a huge fan of icing, so would not eat.

    I too think that naked cakes look unfinished. Although if my cake turns out horrible it's nice to know I can take the icing off and it's still acceptable!

    I love deserts (especially cake) so it looks good to me, but I don't like the style of naked cakes.

    I'm pretty over this trend. I never liked it, to me it looked unfinished.

    I think it can be really nice, depending on the style of the wedding and other decor.

    I'm not a huge fan of naked cakes, they just look half finished to me.

    I'm over the naked cake look. I don't actually like the way they look.
