The Cake Lady!

I'm so excited to post about my first tasting with Eileen Carter, aka "The Cake Lady." We met where she works her magic! People always wonder, "What happens at meetings with vendors?" So here's your inside scoop on the meeting with the baker!
When we arrived, it was first and foremost important that we look through albums of past cakes to pick the design. Leah and Christian decided to go with a petal design which is so new and exciting!
From there, Eileen actually put together styrofoam cakes so they could visualize which one they liked best. It was so cool!
Then it was time to try the cakes flavors. We got to try so many, and the bride and groom had fun coming up with different combinations for each layer.
The best part, Eileen is creating a stadium for the Groom's cake. She's quite excited about this one, and I can't wait to see it!
Oh- and she's blogging now, check out Eileen's Blog.
