I love cake! I mean I seriously LOVE CAKE! So when a client asks me what to look for in a cake, I take that very seriously... probably too seriously. Nahhh... it's cake!
How do you taste a cake to make sure that you love it, that it's everything you want it to be, especially your wedding cake!?!?
That's a great question, and I am so glad you asked!
We've actually talked about MasterPiece Weddings and how we do cake tastings for our clients. But let's talk about the actual tasting part.
First, look at the cake, does it look pretty... even if it's just a slice of cake. Is it crumbly or is it a nice moist piece of cake.
Second, check out the filling, is it pretty and glossy... if its fruit, does it look like the fruit it's supposed to be... if it's Strawberry and Cream, does it look like it?
Now you can taste it... but wait!
Taste the filling first, do you like it, is it tasty?
Taste the cake next... Yummy? Moist? Delicious?
Taste the frosting next... what do you think? Too Sweet? Grainy? Deliciously perfect?
Now taste them all together! How do they taste all together, perfect? Be thinking about how the flavors meld in your mouth, do you like the way they all come together?
It should!
That is my idea of the perfect cake tasting!
Now bring on the coffee!

Note to self: Do not read Melissa's post about cake at 7 a.m. before breakfast has been eaten. It will lead to wanting cake for the first meal of the day!
