Cake or death?

Unlike the poor saps in Eddie Izzard’s famous “Cake or Death” sketch, we will have more than three pieces of cake, and no one will need to choose death.

A Saturday appointment at Cakes by Gina had Emily and I trying a selection of cakes in an effort to decide on a flavor for the wedding cake. Many were tried, but there was a winner. I don’t think Emily wants me to give too many details at this point. I’ll just say that it is made of cake.

Once we decided on the flavor, we worked with Gina on a design. Again, I don’t think we’re giving details away at this point. I’ll just say that Gina said she’s going to have fun, and that it’s challenging. Emily and I were amazed at the design she worked out for us. It’s going to be beautiful.

We’re also having a groom’s cake. Gina is excited by it as well. The words “structural integrity” may have been mentioned at some point. Again, we’re keeping details under our hat (and trust me, I have *plenty* of hats under which to keep it). And no, it’s not what you’re thinking. Or that. Just shush.

Now we just need to decide on a cake topper.
