A week off

This is my first week I've had no cakes to do since four months ago. I love keeping busy with cakes but I think it's about time I did some laundry instead of mixed frosting. So thanks for the continued referrals! This wedding cake was the largest one yet - it served about 200 people. The flowers are made of fondant - the ribbon is black satin. No more weddings on the books for a while, but there are several baby showers coming up in the next few weeks. I'll keep you posted!

Wedding cake marathon

Well the busiest cake-making week of my year is almost over. There was one wedding cake on Tuesday, the one pictured here, and the last one gets delivered this afternoon. I wasn't sure how I was going to manage two weddings in one week, but thankfully they were spaced out just enough so the preparation time didn't overlap. It's been a fun week. I hope to do more wedding cakes as word gets around. I'm starting my prices at about 30% below market value because I'm still relatively new at this. I've learned a lot with each new project. Thanks for the referrals, I look forward to serving you more in 2009!
