When you book a cake in Miami today, the first style question is almost always: vintage or modern? Here is how to decide.
Vintage cakes
Heavily piped, romantic, nostalgic. Best for birthdays, bridal showers, anniversaries, and any event where you want the cake to feel like a love letter.
Modern minimalist cakes
Smooth buttercream, sparse florals, neutral palette. Best for editorial weddings, corporate events, and any setting where the cake should disappear into a styled tablescape.
Our take
In Miami, vintage wins on social media and at private celebrations. Modern wins at corporate events and editorial weddings. Both can be ordered from REMI for local pickup.
