Post pictures of what your wedding cake was supposed to look like or the inspiration for it and then a picture of how it actually turned out!

The top cake looks just a bit more rounded on the edges. ******************************** Baby Desmond Jacob arrived on 6/28. So in love with my little man!

This is from one of my old roommates wedding. It was supposed to resemble this but be the ribbons were to be a light pink: "You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough." Mae West

OUpeargirl Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,837 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 6/26/2007	Well, at first she was pretty upset but tried to not let it show.. But she got over it within 5 minutes because heck, it was her wedding and she had just married the man of her dreams. It ended up being a pretty big joke and unfortunately there wasn't enough cake to go around and there wasn't even a top layer for them to take home and save . She was laughing all night about it. Of course, she immediately contacted them after her honeymoon and received a refund. They apologized and I guess it was a mix up.. "You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough."

Jaders731 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 527 Last Post: 9/27/2009 Member Since: 10/12/2006	And here is the finished product: Pretty good... unless you count the "pearls" looking like gumballs (seriously.. someone asked if those were gumballs!!! ) and.. well the fondant ribbon's were too thick... but hey.. I'm soooo detail oriented.. of course I noticed it!

I wish he could take credit for that.. we actually picked that out of a catalog before we designed the cake.. so that is why its included in the drawing! He did a beautiful job sketching it though!
