    I made a friend's birthday cake a few years ago. When I bought all the ingredients the checkout lady asked if I was baking something. For some reason I said I was making my friend's wedding cake. 🙈 This lovely check out lady was asking all sorts of questions and I had to dig myself deeper and deeper into this hole. By the time I left the shop I almost believed I was making a 3 tier Victoria sponge wedding cake for the happy couple who were getting married after a whirlwind romance!

  • @nellers31

    Fun fact. My husband's aunt insisted on freezing our wedding cake for us (the top layer) for our anniversary (weird tradition, but whatever). However... She did not take off the fresh flowers . So I prepared a wonderful, romantic dinner on our anniversary... Defrosted the old wedding cake... And it was horrible. The entire cake tasted like grass and rotting flowers.
    So long story short, take the flowers off of cakes. And don't let your aunt's boss you around.

So me being a substance over style gal(totally with you there Grace) made the sponges for a 3 tier cake, Victoria sponge, chocolate and carrot cake. And then my friend came over and decorated it the day before the wedding.
    It was a success, everyone loved it the flavour and my friend really made it look amazing. I've never made a wedding cake since but I savour that memory. ❤
