hey dorami, just wondering which flavour of cake you took from Cheryl? I'm ordering from her too and now I'm trying to decide the flavour so just curious which one you took
zen, not sure if you've already gotten the answer to your question, but i think the chief difference is that Pine Garden's cakes are fresh cream cakes, whereas Cheryl works with mainly fondant, though i think she has some buttercream ones as well.
dorami, me thinking of getting lychee too! thought it's different and pretty refreshing. took a poll of my family members and so far it's tied between strawberry and lychee... hmmm... will have to decide soon.
i've sort of confirmed the design with cheryl over a discussion - waiting for the final sketch
Yay! i've decided to take the lychee too, it's unusual so i think it'll make more of an impression. Plus it's yummy too! My wedding is on 23 Oct 2005. Yours?
how much for one layer of wedding cake? What kind of cake?? Butter cake? I've never tasted a wedding cake, none of my friends ever ordered a real wedding cake. All of them just use the dummy cake.
yr cake frm the patissier only $275? i thot the patissier is veri ex. so dun dare to find out more frm them. but heard tat their cake is veri nice. did they let u try the cake before u decide? how many ppl can yr cake serve?
Hi girls,
Don;t mind if I join this thread? I also had a real wedding cake for my banquet on Sunday. Everyone loved the cake. Its a 3 tier fondant cake and the flavour is Violet (quite a unique flavour). It was very nicely decorated too. My baker even put fire sparklers on it and lit it while we did the cake cutting.
Zen, Dorami and Tansan
I will be getting my AD photos next week and will share the wedding cake pix with you k? I was so busy on my AD that I forgot to take a pix of the cake myself.
I bought the cake from Canele. I think the price is reasonable for a 3 tier contemporary looking wedding cake. Perhaps u can check it out at Canele and ask them to quote on the cake u want. My cake can serve up to 150pax
I purposely don't want any fresh flowers on the cake and want the flowers to be incorporated into the cake. Cos I thought if put fresh flowers, it will still be removed when the kitchen cuts the cake and it will look really plain when served.
thanx! now then i noe canele is under les amis grp. can pm me the price of yr cake if not convenient to post here? [email protected]
btw, hv u tried or look at other bakery before u decide on canele? why did u choose them har? i veri confused wif so many bakeries ard. dunno which one to choose.
hi zen,
just so you know, about 2-3mths in advance would be good to place an order for your cake. becos there's a limit to the number of cakes which the bakers can handle.
yr weddg cake is sweet! my hubby said those little flowers look like nipples!! haha what an imaginative hubby i hv
dorami, rem 2 share a pic of cheryl's weddg cake w me yoz k? will be poppg by her place when it is open. is in west coast, i think. hope is convenient.
cheryl quoted me $700 for 3-tier using sponge frsh cream cakes with fresh flowers decoration do u gals thk is expensive because i nd to cater for 600 guest.
i m in the midst of waitg reply from Patissier if she can quote me cheaper then i may consider them no doubt i agree cheryl's design is very nice i believe others can customise to what i want right.
Can I check is your 2-tier cake all in real or some in dummy cake ? How much did Patissier charge you ?
I receive the quote they charge me which is within my budget but I thk I am considering using 1 tier real the other 2 tier dummy because I dun wish to spend much especially it is just to match my decoration theme on stage. I just bring back the tier in real and not intending to serve to the guest.
hi virgo,
my cake is all real. i posted the price in the earlier postings. =)
hi gals,
another cake source to consider: coffee bean. they've got this pink cake which seems really right for weddings. 7KG at $250.
