The baker will give you pros and cons about the fillings and toppings. For instance, they don't recommend whipped cream on your cake if it will be sitting out for a long period of time, especially if its hot. It can go bad.

We are getting yellow cake with hazelnut cream filling. There will be a layer of white buttercream and then fondant on top of that. Our hall will peel of the fondant before serving.

Buttercream vs whipped cream is a matter of personal preference. As a kid I loved buttercream, but as an adult I really prefer whipped cream. However, a cake iced with whipped cream cannot be sitting out on display during the entire reception.

Then again, I really want a mousse filling, and that can't sit out all reception long either, so I will probably go with whipped cream.

I'm having an almond cake with cancolli filling. I picked whipped cream. Just so you know you don't have to spend a fortune on a beautiful cake that taste great. King kullans makes lovely cakes that are just yummy! and cost a third what a regular bakery would charge you.

Buttercream is good, but hopefully they will have samples for you.
