Okay ladies, I love all of the LIW Girls, but I thought it was time that we have a thread dedicated to African American Brides, so that we could discuss wedding and non-wedding related issues that are significant and or relate to women of color. So to start the thread off, could everyone introduce themselves? I am Landra...

Good Mornig Ladies!
My name is Leslie-
To answer the first topic... my FMIL wanted to have the black cake/fruit cake for the wedding cake and I was like NO WAY!! Instead we are going to have the 'light' fruit cake as a favor. I have to have my Butter cream cake for the wedding!!! I can have Black cake in December... as we all now that is a tradition in the West Indian culture.. MY FH family is from Trinidad.
We are not going to jump the broom.
Let's keep this thread moving girls!!!
Welcome Leslie

Hey Christina!
I was actually talking about the west indian black cake. I plan on making it one of my favors.
As far as the wedding cake it will be red velvet to follow through with my theme.
Did everyone have a chance to see my bio?
I was referring to the same cake too... your mom doesn't put rum in it? now you got me thinking.. maybe I should do it too?? i gotta represent my roots and culture!
Gotta have lots of rum!
Anyone jumping the broom?
I WANT TO !!

I have heard about Black pudding but not in cake... it's rice cook in blood and stuff into somthing.. but it looks like sausages and it's grayish black.. i know it sounds horrible and but it's soo damn good when dipped in mango sour dip or tamarin!
