Wednesday Wedding Tips: You Can Never Have Enough Cake (or Pie)

As mentioned in the ‘About’ section of this blog, I have a lot of experience anymore with weddings. I was in or attended 10 of them in 2010… it was the year of the wedding. I learned A LOT and had many learning lessons and great times. I am happy I was able to support my freinds on their special days and I will continue to share tidbits from those. Today I want to talk about cake, and pie…

Seriously, I ate a lot of damn cake this past year. From bridal showers to the actual wedding day I had yellow cake, chocolate cake, red velvet cake, strawberry/amaretto/lemon/malt ball/peanut butter/ name your flavor cake. I ate cupcakes, monogrammed sugar cookies, and chocolate dipped brownies on a stick. I even had wedding pie (pecan and lemon meringue). I thought it was cute how each couple did their own unique little thing that fit their personality. You would think after all of this that I would be sick of cake, at one wedding I was literally serving the cake to hundreds of people as fast as I could hand it out (this group also had pie, I was surprised how fast the cake went after they had all devoured the pies on their tables) but I am still not sick of wedding cake. A highlight of having been in so many weddings, is that I did a lot of clean up and packing at the end of the night, which means that I took home a very large piece (or pieces) of cake at most of the weddings, which made a great breakfast for the rest of the week!
