YAY!!! I love wedding cake!
I can not wait..
What is your main flavors



so far this was our favorite part : )

white cake for the whole thing then dulce de leche buttercream and a layer of caramel (my favorite, its not overally sweet so most people should be okay hahaha)

and rasberry buttercream and a layer of rasberry puree

i forgot to ask if they peel off the fondant or not...i think they do and the buttercream is under it

since they do a dessert room they put out some other flavors as well (not as part of the actual wedding cake). the other ones we picked - hazlenut, pistachio, choc w/choc fudge (i call this one a brownie hahaha), and banana (a bit random but it was yummy)....a little too much cake for me...but there should be no complaining from anyone about the lack of options

any other updates from anyone???

Re: *~* November Is Our Month *~*

I am so jealous of all you girls.. I have no desire to do anything! I still have to do the menus, programs, GM gifts, reader gifts, parent gifts, part of the BM gifts, order the boxes and wrapping paper and wrap them.

I know there is so much to do, but I dont want to do any of it!
