I am starting to think that spending $150 on a groom's cake is a bit excessive. Nevermind the fact that the bakery I was working with is not returning my emails or phone calls. Do you think it is possible to make it myself? I mean, it wouldnt be in the shape of a car like I wanted but I can make a big sheet cake and decorate it with an NYPD theme. Where could I get little cop decorations? Thanks!

Re: Groom's Cake Dilemma
I would make it yourself. We had the exact same dilemma and we just didnt have the money for a grooms cake in the end. Party City I believe sells car shaped cake pans!

NO! Really??? That would be so great! I have to look now... and what about decorations? Any ideas?

You could also have a cake made with the image of FH's car - that's what I'm going to do

Re: Groom's Cake Dilemma
i say take a picture of a cop car, and have them scan the image of it onto the cake, something like that. I was gonna do a grooms cake but $$ its not worth it to me at this point.

Try the price club Costco. 14.99 for a sheet cake they have it in 48 hrs after you order it very delicious I ordered one for my one of my BM showers they will do anything you ask.631-244-9189 direct line for bakery in Costco on sunrise Hwy in holbrook

Re: Groom's Cake Dilemma
Yes, I plan on taking a picture of FH's guitar and getting it scanned on a BJ's cake. The cake from there is so good and I'll save well over 100 dollars.
I agree with the girls! Get a picture cake made at costco or BJ's. They look so nice and are less than $20. Did you leave a deposit with the bakery?
No I didnt give a deposit or sign anything. It's weird becuase I planned to get the chocolate fountain too and they arent calling me back so now they miss out on like $750.
So what do you do? Go to Costco with a picture of whatever and they just put it on there?

This is what we did. We got a huge sheet cake from BJ's. It tasted sooo good and it could feed an army. I think we paid $19.99 and they scanned one of our Epics, blew it up a little and put it on the cake ( the picture is actually edible) I am still trying to get someone to email me pics of it from the RD b/c I forgot my camera

Re: Groom's Cake Dilemma
Wow great idea ladies. I also wanted a yankee cake that was going to be $150 or so. I think it is a waste of money. This scanned picture cake idea is genius. Thanks!

Re: Groom's Cake Dilemma
are you having the cake at your wedding or RD? my catering hall said that we can't bring a cake that is not from a licensed baker so i would check with them before you decide to make it yourself...

Sorry to bring this up again but I went to Costco last night and they dont do it. They only had the regular cakes that have icing designs... What am I going to do?

Re: Groom's Cake Dilemma
Maybe check out a regular bakery? They can probably do it. Why don't you check out Sapienza's on Hempstead Tpke? My FH and I were just in there last week and I think (but I could be wrong) that they had pics of cakes with scanned pictures on them.
