Ok...Mala....take a deep breath in....let it out slowly.....just breath...

Now I would check the galleries for ideas. Do you know how many people are coming and how many servings you need? You can do it. Take something for your period to make you feel better. Good luck...

Thanks sundine2!!! The costumer is actually my friends step dad, it's basically just for a family..I told him that I'll make a 10" cake and charge him $30 since he will provide the ingredients for the fillings..They want the cake on Sunday,HUWWAWAWAWAWA!!!! icon_cry.gificon_cry.gificon_cry.gif

How long have they been married and what are their interests? Do they share an interest? If you can't think of anything "unique", maybe ask the person who ordered it what they would like to see.

I would hate to see you go out on a limb, and have them be disappointed. We've read too many posts from that happening!

Most of all, relax!! icon_smile.gif

You could find out what colors were in their wedding and re-create that a bit. a 10 yr anniversary is diamonds? (that's what came up with google) so I think I'd ask the step-dad if he had some pictures from their wedding, particularly of their cake and or flowers. It'll give you a great jumping off point.

Good luck! Extra Motrin and caffeine and you'll do fine! Really. Relax and do. And post a photo for us when you're finished?
