HWC doesnt let you taste the cake - you pick the design, and then you build the cake - and THEN you pick the desert..
So i still have no desert bc i am an indecisive moron.
Go down there PRIOR to your tasting and sit down with the cake books and try to see if you can decide then - i was there forever - trust me - itll be worth it in the end - then trying to decide right there - the books are always out and stephanie will copy pictures for you to take home!
Once i pick a design ill build the cake. Im leaning towards this one....

Hey Girls! I have an important question. Barb gave me the contact info for the Baker and I know we do the tasting there, but do you get the list of flavors from the Baker, cuz Barb said she doesn't have a list. How do you get the list so that we can choose what we want to taste? Also, why do we get to only taste one flavor? Isn't the point of a tasting to have options and then settle on one?? Let me know!!
