I’m thinking german chocolate cake… there’s a pretty awesome recipe in “The new best recipes” cookbook. plus it just gets better if it sits for a day or two with the filling which is convenient for me.

I love homemade cakes at weddings and yours is just gorgeous! My fiance and I are making a bunch of different cheesecakes (you can freeze them up to a month) and the venue is providing fresh baked cookies. The best part of this plan is that we get to try out all the different cheesecake flavors in the months leading up to the wedding!

I absolutely agree with you on the no fondant… first time I saw a cake with fluffy buttercream slathered all over it I knew it was meant to be :)

@ myDIYweddingday: Thanks!! I spackled it on like buttercream was goign out of style! Very, very thick. Then I used the back of a wooden spoon to make light strokes back and forth over the frosting until it reached the amount of texture I liked.
@ The Perfect palatte: Oh. It was. If only I could share it with you!
@Michelle: Yes! I can still make it! I’m super excited. I do have a test tomorrow, so I’ll have to pop out a little early, but I can’t wait to meet you girls! Flag me down if you see me. I’ll wear a white flower in my hair. Hee.

I actually think you did a pretty great job with the frosting — what was your technique?
