T-100 days!

The count down is on! Via Facebook I have learned that it is is 100 days till our dear friends wed and I provide the cake!! 100 days to go till 10/2/10! Cannot wait for the party of the year! So much fun to be had. What a great way to start it off by this week having the first official cake tasting. The girls and I headed over to the couples new home for a lovely dinner. It was a great way to start of the wedding season as the bride just had her first shower so she was able to wine and dine us! A great time.

And...to top it all of it was her birthday the day before so it was perfect for the tasting! Here is what I did. I made three six inch cakes. A white butte, yellow and devil food cake! They were then filled the following:

White Butter - strawberry and cream
Yelllow Cake - raspberry and cream on one layer then buttercream on the other
Devil Food Cake - raspberry and chocolate on one half and italian merq. on the other

All were iced with a swiss buttercream!

So Yummy! And the finally decision was....the white butter cake with strawberry and cream. It was the best one by far! The cake is to serve about 200ish people with the couple keeping the top tier for their first anniversary. The top tier, as it needs to be frozen, really should not have fruit in it, so that one will probably be chocolate butter cake with buttercream filling...YUM!

I hope by then I can have dairy! :)

See the pics of the night! Also, it was so fun coming up with the fillings and making the cakes for us to taste. Cannot wait for the next one. Less than a month till the baby shower cake!!!
