CHRISTINE AND JEFF'S HALE KOA WEDDING

Happy Wednesday!!
In the midst of our busy weekend we were able to supply a wonderful couple their wedding cake. Christine and Jeff contacted me awhile back about their wedding. They wanted a very grand cake. Christine knew exactly what she wanted. Which is always a good thing when planning the design of a cake.

When it came time for our tasting Christine and Jeff tasted like 8 different flavors. I remember the e-mail so clearly the day she listed the flavors. She had told me that Jeff looked at my list of flavors and could not choose and wanted to try everyone! How funny. I love that. But the only problem with that is when it comes time to pick flavors for the cake it gets to be over whelming. However not for this couple. They choose a 5 tier cake with 5 different flavors! How awesome. I was so excited for her cake, not because I love to make cakes but because they were such an easy couple to work with and they were so sweet.

Christine and Jeff picked many different flavors that included Red Velvet, Strawberry Shortcake, Bananas Foster and Tirimisu (Jeff's Favorite). They had a 5 tier square cake that was a metallic blue color with brown ribbon and then an accent cream ribbon with dragees to look like a buckle. There were over 200 dragees on this cake. I also placed them at the seam of the ribbon in the back. This was a very simple but elegant cake. I loved the colors.

I received a lovely email this morning from Christine along with some pictures of them. I am excited to share them with you.

Hi Vikki!
Once again, you exceeded my expectations!!! The cake could not have been any better. It was just what I imagined. The shimmer blue was spot on and it portrayed the simplistic elegance I was hoping for. There were numerous comments on how beautiful the cake was and even more comments on how yummy the cake tasted....

On a funny, ironic note, 2 of my friends who attended the wedding saw you delivering a guitar cake the same day and when I told them my cake was made by you they were just flipping out about what a coincidence it was!
Christine
We want to wish a special congratulations to both Jeff and Christine and wish them many happy and loving years together!
