Mmm Mmm Good!

One of my favorite channels to watch is the food network. Honestly it's like porn when you're hungry. Yes. I. just. went. there. But in all honestly i'm right! It's like going grocery shopping on an empty stomach and you end up buying so much more then you intended on buying because you were hungry at the time and not only did the cookies scream out 'buy me!' but so was the bag of chips, block of cheddar cheese (a MUST on every grocery list I have), Mama Celeste pizza, and the milk duds! So watching the food network when you're hungry is just like that. It makes you crave what you are watching.

My point is that one lazy Sunday I was watching the Cake Boss marathon (I know it's on not on the Food Network but they have food shows) and I couldn't help but start thinking about what I wanted for a wedding cake. Granted we will have the resort make their own which comes out looking like this:

And don't get me wrong that's nice but our ideal cake would be something like this:

Project wedding

Is that just B-E-A-UITFUL! So my FI and I realized that we can get the best of both worlds and have a wedding cake at the at home reception as well since everyone loves cake and we can hav a second cake cutting for our guests. So I surfed the web for local bakeries in CT to see what our options are. BTW, love the website Project Wedding for their pictures and vendor search! I found one lady that owns Sweet Rewards in Brookfield, CT and she had tons and tons of pictures which me likey! Her website was very informative but the pictures said it all.

I love her attention to details ESPECIALLY in the cake below. Just beautiful!

I showed my FI the website and he was extremely impressed and he was sold on the idea just as quickly as I was. I got super excited that an idea popped into my head! I have no patience whatsoever and I didn't want to wait to contact Kelly at Sweet Rewards so I drafted up an e-mail to her in regards to our engagement party.
