Catching up on some blogging this weekend, because June has been an absolutely crazy month for us. You never seem to realize how far behind a vacation will throw your schedule until you look at the calendar and realize next weekend is Independence Day Weekend. Yikes!
Earlier this month we made a wedding cake for Jessica and David, who were getting married in the North Hills. We met Jessica and David back in February (remember when it was so cold you could barely move) and we all had this idea that it would be fun to have some creative flavors for their wedding cake. And who doesn't love creative flavors?? We decided to go with a strawberry and chocolate cake AND a lemon raspberry cake. Who doesn't love options??

| Raspberry icing, yummmmmmm |
The cake was big enough that we needed to use some dowel rods for structural support, which is a very nerdy way to say the cake was pretty heavy. Oops, did we just let a secret slip?? Yeah we probably did, but it's true, heavy cakes require additional support to keep them together. It's not all smoke and mirrors, guys!
We're pretty pleased with how the end result turned out. Humidity was working against us that day, and the minute we stepped outside the fondant started to pull apart. It happens to the best of us sometimes. We had to do a quick repair job to keep it stabilized, but in the end it came out how we had hoped!
A final congratulations to Jessica and David for getting married, and another order completed by PSR. Yay wedding season!! :)
We'll be back blogging some more soon, don't miss out!
