Planning a wedding can be quite a traumatic affair (trust me on this one, I have had a lot of experience here)! There is the dress, the flowers, the venue …..well, I could go on and on here, but you get the picture.
One of the centrepiece of a lovely wedding has got to be the cake. Some people have huge, fancy cakes with numerous tiers, others have lots of chocolate cup cakes. There are so many wonderful cakes that capture the spirit of the occasion.
It is also quite a pivotal moment when the bride and groom get to cut the cake. Everyone gathers around to watch the symbolic act, and it is always an opportunity to take a nice photo…..unless of course, they have chosen a creepy clown for their choice of confectionery!
This reminds me of the character from ‘It’ the Stephen King book that scared me to death (I am a terrible wimp)! I am not sure that I want to be tucking into someone’s brain, or poking their eye out with my fork. It seems a bit savage for my liking!
I know that for many couples the cake means something to them both, and I am all for the sentiment ‘Till death do us part,’ but some people take it a little to literally!
I have found a few more bizarre wedding cake pics here that makes me wonder what the hell the future is going to hold for these ‘happy
Interesting!
A clown and a suitcase…Here’s a post where I am referring to coulrophobia by giving my personal definition of a clown as well as analyzing from what material the clown’s suitcase could be made, how it could be and what the clown could have put inside the suitcase.
How could you define a clown and his/her suitcase…?

ewwwwww…… I recently offered to organise and buy the cake as my gift to the couple being married who both love chocolate. It cost me an arm and a leg, and when I went to pick it up, it was ugly. And it was 2 cakes instead of tiered. So I went into hyperdrive and lauren and I converted it to a tiered job with amazing chocolate shards around all the edges, decorated with a pom-pom of real roses the same colour as the dress and a vintage car like the one they drive, and edible bling… We were SOOO proud of it.
BUT … the air-con wasn’t working at the wedding venue, and he table for the cake was beside a north ( read all -day sun) facing window that had no curtain or blind… So the cake had to stay in the cool room until the moment they were ready to cut it… grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Our wedding cake was made by someone I never liked and no longer speak to, but at least it was a delicious, beautiful cake 😉
