    I might get some white edible glitter to mix into the icing, make it look really like snow. To be honest that would be such an easy cake to make I really am tempted to do it myself.

    Very moneysaving:T

    Perhaps you need to have a trial run and post some pics for us judge (mind you we can't help with the taste testing:rotfl:)

    I love the iceberg cake too! So cool! I've been looking for a good beachy type cake for the 'home' party that isn't just covered in seashells... I might just end up with a blue cake covered in hibiscus flowers!

    I'm sure I've seen edible seashells in places like Whitby?

    Lol yeah I can see Birdie and Tete's eyes widening at the idea of an entire practice wedding cake going to waste, and under an hours drive away at that!

    I am sure practice wedding cake could 'travel' well via Royal Mail - and of course I would only eat it to assist you (cos it's obviously not it my diet plan:D)

    Tete, I don't really want seashells, it looks a bit too beige... I want really bright colours so it is in keeping with the bright colour scheme.

    I've travelled further for food... just give me the nod and I'll be there!

  • So Dinah - coming back to photography - are you a Canon or Nikon girl (or anything else for that matter). Me - I love Canon (have always been a Canon user since Dad gave me my first camera when I was 9)

    Canon here too, I've tried a few others but nothing is as satisfying and reliable as my canon.

    Just got a nice surprise - I got one weeks JSA refunded from when I was looking for work in 2007. They wouldn't let me claim it cos I moved of my own free will & was out of work for about 8 weeks. So have rounded it off to £70 & chucked it off my credit card. That's my moses basket paid for! Just need £280 for the other stuff!
