The blue color has in its arsenal many shades that are associated in spring with a blue transparent sky, in summer with the sea that beckons to itself during the holidays, in winter with frost on the trees on a frosty day, and in autumn with beautiful raindrops that reflect everything surrounding shades of forest motifs.

contrasts
You can play with color as you like! You can experiment with colors and embody different color schemes, adding delicate blue, lavender, beige, peach and aquamarine shades to the surface of a snow-white cake, images with roses, bows and all kinds of geometric shapes and ornaments. You can use these colors as a background on which a white ornament and pattern is applied.
If you are attracted by bright and rich colors, then experiment. Contrasting colors can be embodied in cake decorations made from mastic in the form of flowers, berries, fruits. Such a contrast should be in everything, not an exception here is the bride’s bouquet or the decoration of the banquet hall, so all colors should be combined in the general background of the solemn ceremony.
At the same time, there should not be many bright accents, because oversaturation tires the eyes of guests.

For China, yellow colors symbolize prosperity, and a Russian folk omen says that a ceremony held in sunny hues contributes to a secure life together.

- in spring, when nature wakes up and you want renewal;
- in summer, when the green surroundings are pleasing to the eye.

Calm muted tones speak of the harmony of feelings and the success of the newlyweds. Most often, plants are depicted in green on a white background, interweaving of delicate lace, geometry. If there is a desire to give the culinary product the feeling of a sunny summer day with its natural green palette, then yellow is added to the green color.
