As I love to tell Whitney, I knew her BEFORE she was a twinkle! Her mother and I have been friends for over 40 years! I was honored to be asked to make Whitney’s and Scott’s cake. As you might imagine, their cake tasting was fun. Whitney’s parents came as did her maid of honor. We loved their analytic style: nibbling and savoring much like a wine tasting .They discussed each individual flavor and combined various fillings and cakes to produce different flavor profiles.
Whitney and Scott wowed us with their choices! Whitney’s favorite candy is Rolos and Scott loves pumpkin pie. They chose two flavors:pumpkin spice with caramel and ganache filling and fresh strawberry cake (Mo, Whitney’s grandmother, would
bake it for her birthday) with raspberry and ganache filling. We loved that they selected flavors for their enjoyment. They made it their own starting with the cake!
Designing the cake was such a wonderful experience for me. The only request was that since Scott is 6’4… the cake needed to be tall for the photographs to have balance. Thus the 7’ tall finished height. The design was left to me with the request to be unique to Whitney. I used elements from Whitney’s dress- the lace, the pearls, the draping and her new monogram WNS. I then added Swarovski crystals for sparkle and lit the cake from within to add shine. The resulting cake was in her words “over the top” and so so beautiful. Thank you Whitney, so were 
you!
The reception was elegant and the food was excellent. The bride and groom definitely were the stars. However, the MOB and FOB took front stage with their rendition of the twist scene from Pulp Fiction. As they say..the crowd went wild!
