The wedding anniversary is as important a date as the wedding day itself. Therefore, the culmination of the festive table must be a cake - beautiful, elegant and delicious . You can make it yourself, or you can order it from a pastry chef, having thought through the design of the dessert in advance.
How to choose a coral anniversary cake?
A wedding anniversary cake should not only be delicious and beautiful, but also large enough to be enough for each guest. It is important to order the cake in advance of the holiday to be sure of timely delivery.
If you have a talent for baking and decorating cakes with cream or mastic, then you can easily make the dessert yourself. If not, then order from a professional.
The top of the cake definitely needs to be decorated. These could be fondant figures with a nautical theme to match the symbolism of the 35th anniversary. For example: shells, starfish, algae, pearls, mermaids, fish, corals.
It is best to prefer sponge cake as a base for a cake . It is light, pleasant to the taste and aromatic.
If the cake is designed in several tiers, then the sponge cake may not support its own weight and the entire structure will slide to the side
A tall cake should consist of a stronger base , for example, chocolate or honey cake layers. Or leave the sponge cake, but place the cakes on a multi-tiered stand - the dessert will look no less chic.

What to give to parents for a coral wedding
Travel as a gift
After these years, the spouses got used to each other, and the relationship became a habit. It takes a little effort to reawaken old feelings. The best and most memorable gift for your 35th birthday would be trips to exotic countries or a sea cruise. It is advisable to send the heroes of the occasion to the coral islands. A great option would be to travel to the Great Barrier Reef, which is located in Australia. Such a trip will not only be remembered by parents for a long time, but will also help them fall in love with each other.
If it is not possible to buy trips to the sea, the heroes of the occasion should be sent on a cruise along one of the major Russian rivers.
For most, the best option would be to celebrate the anniversary in a narrow family circle. Throw a surprise party for the celebrants. On such a day, you need to take care of the romantic decoration of the room.
To create the desired atmosphere, you can use candles and single-color garlands. On the festive table, you can use oases with coral flowers as decorations.
An alternative to a romantic evening would be a tropical party. Guests can be served colorful cocktails with coral decorations or drinks served in coconut kernels, and hand out colorful flower necklaces at the entrance. To create an ambiance, tropical palm trees are displayed in the apartment, garlands of woven flowers are hung, and catchy tropical music is turned on. An apartment decorated with numerous bouquets will be a wonderful surprise. In this case, coral roses are best suited. A romantic atmosphere will help you relax and enjoy your evening.
When preparing a festive evening, you should think about choosing a cake design. The confectionery product should look stylish and without flaws. It’s better to stick with the option with mastic. These cakes look special and can be made in any style.
Coral Anniversary Cake
It is worth paying attention to the marine theme. Souvenirs of this kind perfectly convey the meaning of a coral wedding. A ship in a bottle will decorate one of the shelves in your parents' house and subtly remind you of the need for a vacation at sea. You might like a box made of shells, which can be made to order, just for your anniversary.
The cost of the gift will depend on the welfare of friends and relatives. But if there is enough money, then you can make large movable and immovable gifts.

A light scarf for the neck or a wide-brimmed hat in red or pink shades. For dad, you should choose jewelry made of precious metals, cufflinks and a coral-colored pin or tie.

For a culinary mom, you can choose a set of kitchen utensils or give her an electric home cleaning assistant. A robot vacuum cleaner or steam generator would be a great option.
