Wedding Cake at The Farm (and TLC!)

Sorry I have been incommunicado this week, but things have been cRaZy! I found out that a wedding that I am doing this weekend will be filmed by TLC's Say Yes to the Dress. It has really unnerved me a bit. I always try to make sure my cakes are flawless, but with this bit of info I'm stressing even more now! After I see what happens on Saturday I will blog more about it. Wish me luck!! It would me great if my cakes (or even me) were on TV!!

OK, about this cake... I did this cake last weekend for a lovely couple that were having their wedding reception at The Farm. The bride wanted the cake to tower over her, and that's exactly what she got! I had to stand on a chair to get the crystal vase on top of the cake. The florist did an excellent job placing the hydrangeas and the cake turned out beautifully. The sides were finished only with sanding sugar (click on pic to see detail) which made for a very elegant effect. I enjoyed making the cake and staff at The Farm said it was the largest wedding cake they had seen at their facility.
