BRONZE BUDGET BRIDE

For our Caribbean themed wedding we were planning on having tropical flavors for each layer of cupcake tower and one of my favorites was this Easy Pineapple Cake by Catherine Dallas posted on AllRecipes.com.

Here are some of my not-so-typical cake recipes from AllRecipes.com that were given wonderful reviews and that would make great cupcakes for your DIY cupcakes towers.

• Pumpkin Ginger Cupcakes 
• Coconut Orange Cupcakes
  
• Easy Rum Cake
• Luscious Tropical Dream Cake
• Too Much Chocolate Cake
• Irish Cream Bundt Cake
• Tiramisu Layer Cake

Remember, don't wait till the day before your wedding to try these or any recipe for the first time. Months before the wedding you can make a batch for dessert every Sunday. I personally love reading all the reviews before trying any of the recipes because sometimes they contain some very good suggestions for those trying it for the first time.

You don't have to have a fancy cupcake or cake flavor to impress your guests because as long as the cake or cupcakes are delicious they won't mind eating it up.

I rememer that my mom made a last minute single layer cake for my brother's wedding using a white cake mix and pineapple marmalade that she added to vanilla frosting for the filling. It was just as delicious as the other four she made from scratch.
