You might remember that back in January, I asked you readers to Help Choose My Wedding Cake. I should apologize for taking so long to provide an update after so many readers, old and new, commented to help me choose.
It dawned on me shortly after writing that post that my dear fiancee had already sorted them in her order of preference. I should have realized that #1, with it’s long description and the use of “pretty” were indications that was her favorite. Perhaps in an exercise of negotiation and sheer wearing the other party down, we’ve decided on the two finalists:
- 1. Pretty ivory frosting with fancy blue swirly designs and pearl dots.

—
- 3. White frosting with blue flowers.

From here, we will leave it up to fate. I (er, “we”) have the fortune of having an aunt/aunty/auntie (whichever you use) who will make and bake our wedding cake for us, in addition to all of the desserts for the reception. So we will be sending her these pictures for her to consider. She will then tell us which one she can do. It’s great to have a large and loving family willing to help out when one member has a happy occasion like a wedding, or even for a sad occasion like a funeral.
So, we leave the destiny of our cake to fate – except for the inside, which will be yellow, thank you very much.
Mahalo!

I like the simple #2 with real orchids circling each level.
