Next weekend we are meeting with our catering hall and I need to show them a picture of the cake I want at my wedding. Most of the cakes I've been seeing are fondant, which I don't love and which my catering hall doesn't do. So...help! Please? TIA!!
ETA: our colors are white, wine, and light pink!

Fondant is yucky... IT LOOKS AWESOME but tastes kind of funny. It is rolled out on the cake to make a smooth apearance or make cool designs... These cakes are fondant.
Actually, if the fondant is made right, it tastes really good. Some have a sweet vanilla flavor or a marshmellow flavor.
Really? Cool.. the stuff at the WOTY wasn't good... That was the bakery my hall uses too.. I guess I won't have good fondont.
Sorry...
My sister loved my cake (which was fondant)...and then went to a wedding 3 weeks later that also had a fondant cake and thought it tasted nasty.
Haha - my cake didn't look 100% the way I wanted it to, but it tasted phenomenally delicious!

fondant has a taste?? I thought it was almost tasteless (sugary) and it was used for show?

I was told that all though it looks nicer its GROSS - the thatched cottage also said that they can pretty much make a cake look like the fondant its the flowers that are the difficult part so you are better off using fresh flowers.
That is a beautiful cake!
