The Most Dangerous Food is Wedding Cake, James Thurber 1894 - 1961

Well I don't know exactly what he meant by that, but a wedding cake surely is a cake that celebrates one of the most momentous moments of your life... dangerous? Maybe for some, but for Sarah and Brad the quote should perhaps have said, joyous. I was very happy to make their wedding cake, even though I was so exhausted from last week's effort. Many don't realise the hours of work that go into shopping for ingredients, chopping up all the chocolate and butter, lining of tins, the hours of baking, rolling out of fondant icing, covering of cakes, mixing icing, cutting out, moulding and painting the decorations and applying them to the cake... all by hand! Sarah and Brad's appreciation was so lovely.
