Red Velvet, but I'm waiting to see what else I'm offered. But right now, FH and I are definitely considering red velvet.

i know they definitely have red velvet. I saw an 09 bride say she had that. We actually arent using their cake. It made me sad when i saw it. we are only having 75 people, and they give you a baby cake for that.

This sounds absolutely delicious...

but why would cannolli be taboo - i've never heard that before - am i missing something?

Gotcha. This is kind of FH's field anyway...he's not big on sweets, and I'll eat almost any kind of cake, so I told him to pick the flavor.
Are you going to their showcase in January? I can't wait. I think it's the weekend after TWOTY?

Re: Wedding Cakes

we are alternating layers

one layer will be white cake with chocolate ganache and mocha buttercream

the other layer will have chocolate cake with vanilla ganache and fresh strawberry/whipcream mixture

all layers will have vanilla buttercream on the outside

Re: Wedding Cakes

Hmmm, my faves are canolli cream, vanilla ganache, and raspberry so if I can get all three in there, I'd be pleased as punch. I can't WAIT to do the tasting. We're probably going to go for that in January!

I dunno canoli seems sooo ordinary too me and I've been to alot of weddings and none of them had it in there cakes. It wouldnt stop me from doing it though.
