Update on Cake

So, we had our first cake tasting with the delightful Callie Stingel of Callie's Confections. She greeted us at her home office, and we were admiring the examples of beautiful cakes and sugar flowers on display. Everything in her office was pink and happy, even her laptop! :) And I thought I knew what I wanted: Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream. But after she presented us with three cake flavors and five decadent buttercream flavors, there was one flavor that really stood out: Her almond buttercream. It was fabulous, and it made a big impression on my fiance and mom as well. Add a little drizzle of raspberry filling and I was in heaven. I was really having a moment. Put a sign on the door please, do not disturb!

So we will be having chocolate cake with almond buttercream and raspberry filling. Hopefully our guests will love it as much as I do! We also got to play around with some design ideas, finalizing the way we want the branches to look and a few sugar anemones here and there! I'm so excited!
