Have Your Cake and Eat it Too
My cheesy Paint version of the design/colors :)
3 Tiers:
Golden Cake with Raspberry Filling
Golden & Chocolate Combo Cake with Chocolate Cream-cheese Filling
Lemon Cake with Lemon Filling
And because I couldn't decide between the two....
Buttercream filling between the layers and
Cream-cheese frosting to cover the outside
Design:
I had no clue what to do or what I liked. I had searched though tons of cake designs but nothing really stood out to me. Then I saw an example of a "victorian vine scroll" design at the cake place and it reminded me of grape vines ... so it just felt like a no-brainer! Shades of green for the vines and leaves and dark purple for the beads of "grapes." The bigger pearls on the bottom of each tier will be purple as well and I think I'm going to end up with purple flowers for the topper. It was the fastest decision I made in the entire planning process so far.
Dessert Station
We're also having a dessert station because this girl can't be limited to just cake :)
