I’ve been working with the wedding cake designer/baker at the Burgundy Basin, and I sent her over what I wanted the cake to look like. (Click here to see full sized image.)

She said that she didn’t know if she could do the knot design justice, but that she would try. We ordered a sample cake, and she did the design on it. It came out ok, but not as smooth as I’d hoped. I’m not sure how she would make it that smooth though. I’ll post pictures of it later.

The cake tasted good. It was maybe a little dry, but over all not bad. And I mean, we’re only paying $100 for this, so how could could we really expect it to be. John’s mom HATED it, which was a little annoying, but oh well. That didn’t stop her from eating half of it!

The cake topper arrived from the UK and it was A LOT smaller than I expected it to be! I’m thinking it will be ok though, because it’s so tall, but I wish it was thicker. Maybe if we add some flowers to the base it would be ok. I’ll have to play with it.
