twinkle> u can search under whole cakes and filter results by T. they hv lots of flavours and they r very nice

soft and moist...
it's better for u to write to them to let them kw u r going down to order the cakes... cos i think only the boss and his wife is able to handle this kind of order... the rest r just assistants...

speaking of the arrival time for MUA, i haven't cfm with my MUA wat time she shld rch my hse in the morning... think i better SMS her soon

missy> after we started to write the invites, we then realised that we hv abt 50+ tables liao

xiao liao, dunno hw to handle...

[blueystar]

mine is at Pan Pac's pacific ballroom... can also cater up to 50+ to 60 tables... but i dun wan so many tables... my max is only 45... but it seems impossible now

 

[j2010t]
