I've been to three weddings recently and all the cakes where dry as all hell and tasteless af. The only reason I could tell I was eating both frosting and cake was because I recognized the difference in texture's. I'm sorry but if I'm gonna pay $500 - $600 on a cake it'd better be the single best thing I've ever tasted and ever will taste in my life. I mean come on many girls dream of their wedding day for years before it happens and you'd think these bakeries would pull out all the stunts to make sure the cake looks and tastes perfect. I've had birthday cakes from the grocery store that cost much less and taste much better.
