A Slow October

So I have no neat pictures to post because October has been slow with orders. BUT today I had my first "cake consultation/cake tasting" for Melissa and Kevin. Melissa is one of my good friend's sister, and she and Kevin are getting married in March of 2011. And they were kind enough to ask me to possibly do their wedding cake! So today they came over for a tasting and idea-throwing session. I'll keep their details a surprise until their wedding, but we definitely got everything picked out. I prepared homemade cakes: red velvet (Kevin's favorite), chocolate with buttercream icing, chocolate with raspberry filling and chocolate buttercream icing, white cake with buttercream icing, white cake with cream cheese icing, and chocolate cake with buttercream icing and fondant. Last night was definitely a cake marathon, but it was fun and Melissa & Kevin picked some great flavors, and had some great ideas!

Check back in March sometime to see all the details and how my first wedding cake turns out! :)
