Ok...a few quick cake updates since I'm hoping to avoid work until Monday morning.
First off...I have put in my cake order I was originally planning on having a cake delivered to my meal at Narcoosee's. It's no secret that I'm not a fan of working with the GF, but I figured I'd give it a try. I called last week, but nearly a week went by before I heard back. I told myself that I'd change my plans to the Contemporary bakery for our Cali Grill meal if I didn't get anywhere with the GF. So, the GF called me later that day while I was in the bathroom at work and left me a msg. I told myself that I'd go with the GF if they answered when I called back...but I'd go with the Contemporary if I got their voicemail. I got their voicemail...so Contemporary it is! I emailed the Contemporary that same evening and had my first email from Chef Brian by 6:30a the next day. LOVE HIM! We went back and forth for a couple of days, but we finalized things yesterday and I put in my order with their cake line today.
I'm going to let the cake be a surprise to all...but a few little things.
1. It won't be Donald and Stitch because they can't put together characters that don't appear in cartoons together.
2. It won't be steampunk...because it just doesn't fit with my revamped theme.
3. The topper should be awesome!
4. The cost is kind of crazy. When I started to place my order...the guy asked if it was a 2-tier...since the price would suggest it. I said no. Then he asked if it was a 10" and I said no...it's just an 8". But I've got my trust in Chef Brian and I'm hoping it will be spectacular!
OK, so now for other people's cakes...
This was $60 and made by the Contemporary.
This is a wedding cake from the GF...
So, not much of an update...but just wanted to log in and touch base. I'll be so happy when things calm down at work!
