MMMMMMmmmmm Cake

I love cake in general, so loving wedding cake is perfectly natural and expected. The beautiful designs of wedding cakes thrill me to death, and of course I also love the disasters that can be found on Cake Wrecks. But I don’t want a wreck. I want something cool…but it turns out all the “cool” stuff I like is made with fondant and apparently fondant is both expensive and non-tasty. It is so pretty though and the majority of the cakes I love involve fondant of some sort, so I'll have to talk the "cake lady" into doing something like this but without fondant. Here are some of my favorites…



Despite these flowery cakes I’ve shown here, there’s also a part of me that really wants a Star Trek cake. Yeah, that’s right, we are both into Star Trek, particularly Next Generation, and I thought it would be cute to incorporate that into the reception…oh yeah, and it would also be really nerdy, so we’re probably not going to do it.

I found a nice lady at work that makes cakes and they are waaaay cheaper than some of the area competition (but doesn't like fondant) so when we get closer we’ll decide on the style and then its good eats for all!

I liked how pretty and simple Cake #3 was. Plus it wasn't OVERLY girlie so it's not "all about the bride" kind of stuff. You know my coworker was telling me about ppl doing a faux decorative cake and then having sheet cake in the back which is served out to everyone.

I loved the cake I had at Lucy's shower- it was from P.Fred area too. It was so good and pretty! I crave it to this day. I'm a sucker for cake and I'm already eagerly anticipating yours!:)

P.S. I know a great local (to you) photographer. She went to high school with Dom and did the Trash the Dress photo thing I did last year.
