I have a busy week, in preparation for the Wedding Cake I'm delivering on Saturday morning! I always have to plan out the days and what I need to accomplish each day leading up to the wedding to make the cake perfect~!
So tonight I'll begin the process by baking cakes. I need two 12 inch, two 10 inch and two 6 inch layers! Those will all be split and filled with strawberry filing, but that wont happen until Wednesday night. I will end up with one 12 inch round/4 layer cake. One 10 inch/4 layer cake and one 6 inch/4layer cake. Then Thursday night the first layer of white icing will go on the 3 finished layers of the cake. They will all be displayed on my three floating tier stand atop a layer of gold satin....which will cover the cake stand and the satin will puddle around the table....Should be gorgeous and I'll display pictures once I get it set up at the Reception room at the F&M bank in Dover!
On Friday I'll be doing the basket weave icing on all three layers, and the flowers will be delivered to me on Friday that will top the cake. All systems go at this point!! Wish me luck.
I've come a good distance with my cake business, since it began in February. Hopefully after the first of the year i'll be able to devote a little more time to marketing, when I give up my weekend bartending job. Just figured I might as well get through the end of the year making the money from the holiday parties!! Gotta get the stash in even better shape, in case of disaster,,,,,,,,which I seem to have at least once a year.
Check back for updates!!
