ooooh lovely annabelle, heres my wedding cake, everything about the wedding was sparkly but i couldnt decide on a cake until i see this one and it was so appropriate for my lot lol

drunken bridemaids and ushers etc i also had some lovely cupcakes too. the cake was one layer fruit as my nan asked, one layer lemon for me and one layer chocolate for hubby. but we never actually got to taste any, by the time we got back from honeymoon which was only 3 days there was none left at all we had so many family staying over lol

Love it Mirror!!!! Think the man under the top tier has rude intentions for the woman bending over in front of him!!!!!!

Loving the cakes! Half of our cupcakes were lemon and half chocolate but the icing was the same so everyone got a surprise! They all got eaten though! Our little cake on top was a fruit cake that MIL made and is in the freezer ready for the birth of the first child....so come on first child - be born so we can eat some cake!!!

We had our top tier as the cake at DS1's christening. My DH's sister made our wedding cake and we asked her just to re-ice it for the christening as icing doesn't keep very well. She re-iced it alright but ON TOP of the wedding icing! So we had over an inch thick icing to munch through! She died 2 years ago suddenly so I shouldn't speak ill of her should I

Double layer icing would be my DH's idea of heaven, especially if there was extra marzipan in between! He would think she was a genius!

We've kept our top tier of wedding cake for our first child's christening too - looking forward to decorating it though it'll probably be spring before we have Giblet's christening.

yeah i know and they are all drunk hence lying everywhere, the bloke who made it for me even put the bridesmaids in silver and the men with burgundy cravats etc as thats what they were actually wearing, he got all the right hair colours etc too it was great



there was obviously a kiddies table too with cakes and things on so they didnt look too hard at the cake lol

We managed-somehow- to overorder on our cupcakes. They worked out very cheap, our wedding was in a country house owned by my Dad's friends, and the cakemaker lived at the bottom of the lane, practically, and was very easy to pay. I'd ordered 200 cupcakes, amended to 50 odd-more, and at the same time, my mum called and ordered another 200! On top of that, we had a 3 tier cake for the evening which was just sponge and cream which was yellow and covered in teddies (I can't remember why, not important really!)....

They were plain lemon sponge, raspberry ripple and chocolate. It was 0230hrs before I got to taste my own, as every time I went to eat one, someone would start talking to me!

Cool cake as well, mirrorimage!
