Fake Wedding Cakes?

[BetteDavisEyes]

I went to the wedding of Mike's cousin & there was this neat stand where these cute cupcakes were stacked. There were chocolate & strawberry cupcakes so I swiped 4 of them to eat (like a total pig) before the bride came up to me in tears b/c I was eating their wedding "cake" before they had taken pictures with it. In my defense, the cupcake stand was set up in the middle of a table loaded with other pastries so I just assumed they were also desserts. I didn't know they were the wedding "cake". Oops!

You told me this one last night, and I'm STILL laughing.

I saw the fake tiers thing on "Whose Wedding Is It Anyway?", but I have never heard of an entire fake cake. It seems tacky to me.

My sister and her husband aren't big cake fans, so instead they had three cheesecakes. They were just regular round cheesecakes with raspberries arranged on top; They sat on little pillar things to make them different hights. At the end of dinner, they cut the cheesecake and then it was served as dessert with some raspberry sauce.

When my cousin was married in Australia, they had the best wedding cake. Down Under they still serve the traditional fruitcake soaked in rum and then covered with royal icing. It looks like an American wedding cake, but tastes so much better! Then again, you can soak almost anything in Rum and it will taste better...
