My brother in law recently eloped and we are meeting his wife for the first time tomorrow! In honor of the occasion, I decided to make them a small wedding cake today. Here is the result. Definitely NOT my best work. It was my first time using a non-crusting whipped cream frosting and boy, is this stuff unforgiving. However, since it's just for us to eat at home, I decided that it's the thought that counts!

I hope the bride likes it! What do you think?

Wow, that's a pretty darn good looking cake, for being a "last minute cake". Great job, I'm sure they will both love it. Looks nicer than the cake I paid a bakery to do for mine, 28years ago!

Only you will see the imperfection in it. Everyone else will just think it's a wonderful surprise; your new SIL will probably cry or scream be it that she's not expecting a full sized wedding cake the day she meets her in-laws for the first time! Great Job!

That is a very nice and wonderful way to welcome her into your family. I'm sure everyone will love it. I haven't worked with that icing yet, but I can imagine how hard it is to smooth. It's my favorite icing ever. MMMMMMM

I wish my last minute cakes looked that good. Even the ones that I have a lot of time for don't look that good. It's very pretty and I'm sure they will love it. Great job! icon_surprised.gif

It looks really yummy and pretty! I like that pink on white look. Definitely a great surprise for the new coupleicon_smile.gif The only imperfections I can see are with smoothing and with the whipped cream, it just makes it look more appetizing icon_lol.gif

As Rachel Ray would say, Yum-o! thumbs_up.gif
