The Goddess of Wedding Cakes

While looking for a good cake to post for today, I thought to myself, I wonder what's on Sylvia Weinstock's site. For those of you who don't know who she is - for shame! I'm just kidding. Sylvia Weinstock is the goddess of wedding cakes and each cake she makes is taylor made to the couple it's for, and was one of the first masterminds to come up with individual cakes for guests. This woman's got brains and talent and a great pair of glasses. Check out her site at: www.sylviaweinstock.com .

Wedding cakes are one of the things that a couple can do to really express themselves and their personal character (or quirks) in the middle of a wedding that may or may not necessarily represent them. With a cake, it's the opportunity to have fun, do something to make people's jaws drop, and eat some of the finest quality cake you'll probably ever get to taste. When picking a cake out - first think about your favorite flavors. The whole cake doesn't have to be vanilla with lemon filling. Each tier is an opportunity for taste bud splendor, and many cake makers are coming out with some incredible flavors, like creme brulee raspberry, or spice cake with chai tea filling. Don't know what you'd like? That's why there's TASTINGS!! Your chance to eat your fill of free cake (most of the time). Another great place to try things out? WEDDING SHOWS! Come check out the Battle of the Betrothed at the Seattle Wedding Show the first weekend of January (http://www.weddingshow.com/) enter the Battle if you haven't already, and check out the cakes! Yum. And when you go, stop by the Seattle Bride booth and say hi to me!!
