Have Your Cake
And Eat It Too by
Kathryn Hollingsworth
To find
a professional cake designer, expect
to sit down to a consultation first.
Make sure you've selected your colour
theme in advance and bring samples in
the form of ribbons, fabric swatches
and photographs of cakes. You can expand
your wedding theme to include your cake
by adding details that have been duplicated
from your gown. Why not consider inscribing
your vows or favourite love songs on
the cake?
Ordering your cake
four to six months prior to your wedding
day will bring you some peace of mind
and ensure that you don't have to settle
for something that's less than perfect.
Prices can vary depending upon the type
of cake, fillings, finishes and number
of servings required. You may want to
stay away from anything with nuts because
of problems with allergies. Cakes can
be made in a wide variety of shapes and
include your favourite flowers or berries
to decorate each guest's plate.
There are so many
options that it should be an easy task
to find elegance and quality while sticking
to your budget, just as long as you start
shopping early.
