I am in need of lots of honest opinions. I had decided to go ahead and do the bridal magazine. I got a good price, and there's a wedding cake feature with 6 photos.
Here's my problem. I don't have time to make 6 more cakes. I might have time to do one or 2 more besides the 2 I've finished, but this is all due Dec 1, and that would mean 2 cakes per week on top of the real cake orders and my kid's birthday. I need to know which, if any, of my web site's cakes would be good enough to go in a wedding cake feature in a magazine. Also, if I could use the 50th wedding anniversary cake photo, even though it has a 50 topper. I'm desperate here, and I really need you to help me decide whether to chuck this whole thing, or use some photos from my website.
Don't worry about hurting my feelings, I know I'm no Collette Peters or Toba Garrett. I'm asking for it, so cut loose. But please hurry, if you can....decision needs to be made soon.
Thanks to you all in advance.
Any and ALL of your wedding cakes on your website warrant a place in a wedding magazine! Do NOT pass this up. You're very talented. Good luck!
OMG They are all beautiful. I just looked at your pictures! I especially like the one you described as "very simple" and the one with the turquoise roses, oh the owl one is great too!!!
I would choose a varity of cakes, I like the one with the choc. scroll work, I would put the square one, and I also like the one with the red roses on top. But they are all fantastic!
Just had a look at your cakes and you have nothing to worry about...they are all really pretty and very well done!!..go for it...what an opportunity!!!
I especially like the chocolate scrollwork cake!
You can and should use any of your tiered cakes, they are all beautiful. Anyone who can do such a great job on a Collett Peters cake should not have to worry. Good Luck.
Chocolate Scrollwork, Tiffany Lamp and the stacked baby shower cake on your home page. <-- Edit: I meant the gallery page, not your home page.
I particularly like the all white wedding cake and the chocolate scroll one, but your cakes are wonderful. Use you own judgement, maybe with a bit of confirmation from us CCer's, you can't go wrong.
WOW!! they are all great, I really like the black scroll and the first one with the monogram. Good luck!
Wow! You have got talent! I love all of your cakes but the dark chocolate icing scroll cake and the 50th anniversary cake were some of my favorites. Both of these look like magazine pictures. I would also suggest putting in the traditional cakes but also one of the less traditional designs.
Can I also add that your prices are very good. In my area, a three tier cake to feed 100 with nothing extra and not nearly as pretty as yours cost $400.00.
Congratulations on the bridal magazine deal. I know you will be fine.
I love all of them, but if i must choose, I say to use the tiffany lamp and the chocolate scroll work, beautiful job on all of them.
I would use the lamp cake and definitly #5 and #6 in the wedding gallery. They are gorgeous. All of them are but those are the two that made me stop in awe.
ANY of your cakes are magazine worthy!!! YOU have talent, girl!!! I am totally enamoured with the Tiffany lamp!!! LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! I'd say go for it. Opportunities like this don't cross your path every day. Good luck and let us know what happens. You know that we're behind you 150% whatever you decide!!!

I would go with the monogram and the scroll cake! Your cakes are beautiful and I am sure which ever you decide on will be super! What a great opportunity to be in a wedding magazine! Good luck with your choices!

Chocolate scrollwork wedding cake
Tiffany Lamp
Collettes birthday cake that you redid
Embroidery flower wedding cake
Building with the fire and the fire truck
Piano cake
Flowered cupcakes are gorgeous as well
I hope I've helped! Good luck...keep us posted
You are very talented & you should do this don't pass it up!!! Use all of the wedding cakes in your gallery!! There all beautiful!! Blessing & Good Luck on your new venture!!!
Oh My!!!!! I love your work!!! You have so many to choose from. I cant beleive you didnt think any of them would be worthy. Very talented.
My favorites for the magazine, partially because of the photo quality and lighting too, are:
Scroll Wedding Cake
Tiffany Lamp
"Happy BIrthday Judith" cake with the flowers
Colette's rose cake
Wedding cake with was it MJR initials on top?
Your cakes are beautiful! They'll all be great!
Deff the cake with blue roses and scroll work, the two anniverary cakes are nice additions, the Tiffany lamp shows your diversity as well. It would be good idea for shower cakes and the like. The collettes rose cake is very pretty also, classy.
A million thanks to all of you who took the time to look at my website and give me your opinions. I've decided to go ahead and do the magazine ad.
I am so appreciative of you cc'ers. I've never met a more helpful or supportive bunch of people. Thanks so much for your help.
I am a new memeber and I totally agree, everyone has been VERY helpful and kind. Thank you.
