Cake and dresses!Feb 4th
So Benn and I met with Giti from Confection on Tuesday to talk about our cake and taste their flavors! We chose four flavors; vanilla, chocolate mint, peach bellini, and honey maple carrot. We didn’t get to try the peach bellini because the peaches aren’t very good right now. In place of the peach, she brought us honey lavender cake to try. They were all very good! The cake was of a thicker consistency, but it was still moist. The chocolate cake was also thick and moist! I think Benn and I would disagree as to the order of our favorite flavors, but in general, we liked the vanilla, chocolate mint, and carrot cake. The honey lavender was really sweet. The cake had lavender in it and it definitely had a flowery taste.
We talked about the kind of cake we want…which was hard because we hadn’t really decided what we liked. I showed pictures of the cakes I had looked at and liked, but we had to narrow it down to our top three together. We decided we liked ribbon on the bottom of each layer with a cascade of flowers. Giti priced it out for us, and including delivery and set up, it would be $700.
We want to taste cake at Boonzaaijer’s because their prices might be a little better.
Overall, we were very happy with Confection, and Giti was very friendly, and I think she could bake us a delicious wedding cake!
About the bridesmaid dresses and my dress…instead of driving out to Quincy a few more times, I just picked up the dresses and we’re going to have them altered in Kalamazoo along with my dress.
Thanks for reading!
