She advises couples to do thorough research, look at inspiration photos, and visit the baker's website to understand their style. Lia emphasizes the importance of discussing your budget with the baker and suggests bringing two or three inspiration images to the consultation. She highlights current trends like vintage-style cakes and tall, slender cakes with acrylic separators. 

Specializing in fondant-covered cakes, Lia introduces the faux cake method, where the inside is inedible, but the outside is 100% edible. She recommends having one cake flavor to simplify the process and cater to all guests. The cost of the cake is influenced by factors such as guest count, size, flavor selection, and design intricacy. Lia explains that faux cakes, made with real ingredients but not meant for consumption, offer flexibility, durability, and ease of transportation. They eliminate concerns about sweating, condensation, and deterioration and can be kept as keepsakes. 

Lia advises couples to trust their baker's expertise and consider incorporating flavors that reflect their wedding location or theme. Tune in to discover how to make your wedding cake a stunning and memorable centerpiece for your special day!
