Sweet! Yummy! Delish!

Tuesday, October 12, 2010

I just cooked (and ate) some yummy lasagna and now I'm in the mood for some dessert! What a perfect time to talk about the cake! Now, before I go on and on about what I'm looking for in a wedding cake, I must be honest with you all and admit that Mr. Cuddlefish is in charge of everything cake related. Yes, he is in charge of deciding on the design, the size, the topper, the flavor, and choosing the bakery. I totally trust him with all this and at the same time it is so hard for me to give up control! Either way, the decision is his and I will just use this post to share my opinions. Maybe he'll read this and like some of my ideas! {wink, wink}

When it comes to wedding cakes, anything goes! I've seen cakes that tower 5 feet in the air, some with dozens of roses cascading down the side, and also the ever popular "cupcake" cake. What does Miss Cuddle Fish want, you ask? (C'mon guys, you know me) None of the above!!!!!!!!

I propose that we have a small one or two-tiered cake surrounded by lots of yummy specialty (non-wedding) cakes! I've never been a huge fan of regular cake and on my birthday I always request an ice cream or cookie cake. So why would I settle on a traditional cake for the wedding??? I wouldn't. If. It. Were. My. Choice. And it's not!

So because marriage is about give and take, I believe that we should have both! A (small) traditional wedding cake surrounded by lots of other (much better tasting) cakes like Oreo Cheesecake, Tiramisu, Red Velvet, Peanut Butter Cup, Cookie cake, Cupcakes, etc. Doesn't that sound delectable?! And then I'd like to sit them all on cute cake stands and decorate the table with nice linens and flower arrangements. Let's see what this could look like...






Did you have something other than a traditional cake at your wedding? If so, share your idea!
