Cake Tasting :-P

Hey everyone! Sorry that I haven't written in so long we have been super  busy! We've been working very hard to get everything finished for the wedding so I figured I was do for an update!

As some of you know we have had some troubles with are cake from price chopper so we decided to try elsewhere. On my way to a dentist appointment I happened to pass by a new bakery called Make Me A Cake Next Door. I was so drawn in by the window display and the reviews that I had read online that I had to call for a consultation.

This is the inside of the shop! :o)  It was so cute!

This morning we had our cake tasting and let me tell you it was probably one of the best parts of planning. The cake samples were delicious! We tried their basic tray (I wanted to really keep things simple) which consisted of chocolate, white, yellow and red velvet cake all topped with their butter-cream frosting. In the middle of the tray were three different fillers... white chocolate mousse, chocolate mousse with home made chocolate gnash, and homemade raspberry preserve. It was soooooooooooooo good :o) !! After trying them all we decided that we liked the chocolate and white cake the best with the chocolate mousse filling.

As you can see we devoured our samples! lol

Shawn enjoying our tasting :o)

We couldn't make up our minds as to which cake favor we like the best so, we went with both! The cake itself is going to look like the cake I had talked about a few blogs ago with the three square tiers with flower decorations. We are adding a few things to the cake also but were going to keep those a surprise for our guests.

Melissa was the women who helped us out and she was fantastic. She was so helpful and was able to help us stay within our budget and still have a beautiful and delicious cake!

We also dropped our invitation envelops off to a calligrapher today.  After writing up all of the save-the-dates I decided that I wanted someone else to do the actual invitations lol! I had gotten a reference from a friend from nursing school who used this women to do her invitations for her wedding and she spoke very highly of her. So I gave her a call...she was so accommodating and her prices are very reasonable. We should have them all back by next week and I can't wait to see them~!

Time is winding down so quickly the wedding will be here before we know it!!

Thanks for reading :o)

Only 70 more days until the wedding!
Only 85 more days until the honeymoon!!
