We are blissfully in the cake sampling stage. Ahhhhh the sweet lure of cake and frosting. Sigh, the endless possibilities of flavor combinations and only Eric and I to dream them up. So many different flavors to try. The challenges, choosing a flavor! But seriously, a wedding cake should be filled with love. And what a great love affair chocolate cake is. Chocolate cake with any frosting really, strawberry, coffee, vanilla and of course chocolate frosting! Alas, the search continues.....below are a couple of pictures of the cakes we sampled! If only we could taste with our eyes..........
