So, here are some recipes I've been salivating over for the last hour or so.
- Caramel bundt cake - looks amazing and would be a nice shape contrast
- Ginger and Kumara cake - some kind of "healthy" option must be present; Grant doesn't like ginger, but I feel the need to show the Orstraaalians what a kumara is...
- Lemon poppyseed cake - for a light, zesty option
- Chocolate cake - although I have my own Best Chocolate Cake recipe ever, I worry it could be too moist if I wanted to make layers
- Spiced Applesauce cake - sounds deliciously wintery for our May wedding
- Lime yoghurt cake - I love limes, and yoghurt, and cake... Another light citrus option?
- Raspberry buttermilk cake - the simplicity of it just makes me smile and it sounds sooooooo yummmmmmm...
- Neapolitan cake - if I can't be a princess, can't I have a cake that reminds me of Marie Antoinette? Also, it seem a nice change from standard spongey/flourey cake
- Tiramisu cake - seeing as it's Grant's wedding too, he should get some say in (one of?) the cake(s) I suppose and he really likes tiramisu
- Orange Almond cake - for the gluten-free guests
And then there are cheesecake recipes, because I love cheesecake and have decreed that I must eat it on my wedding day:
- Triple chocolate cheesecake - cos chocolate and cheesecake is classic
- Cappuccino Fudge cheesecake - cos the name and that layered picture are making me melt with anticipation
- New York cheesecake - cos it's classic and I love the height of the crumb layer all the way to the top
- Dulce de leche cheesecake squares - cos I can't have my Argentine family I'd love to have the delicious food they introduced to my (and my family's) life, the gloriousness that is dulce de leche
And to finish, I'll read these tips on layer cakes over and over and over. Promise.
Any advice you can share would be appreciated, including back-up options for the potential "WHY AM I DOING THIS?!" meltdown.
*love love love love love*
Kiwa.
