Claud2001 Your son's cake is gorgeous. I vaguely (sp?) remeber seeing it in her portfolio too. I am using the lavendar cake on her site. I am so excited. Thanks for the feedback!

Re: buttercream, whipped cream or fondant?????

hi again....no, i don't think you have seen my son's cake. she just made it last weekend. however, i picked the style from her website, and just asked her to use baby blue in it. perhaps that is why it looks familiar?
which cake are you getting?

I'm leaning towards fondant. I could give a crap about how it will taste...as long as it looks good!

It is a rolled sugar paste icing. If you think buttercream is too sweet you will not like Fondant. It looks great because it looks perfect and smooth but it is very sweet.

Claud-

I guess I was wrong about seeing it. It's still nice though.

My wedding cake is #3 on the custom creations page on her site. It's a lavendar color .
