I made a cake and put in straws for support. Here is my question. Do you tell the client where the straws are, or just mention that there are straws/supports?
I mention this because I happened to be at a babyshower and when straws were found in her cake during serving, it became the topic of much mirth and speculation - no one was quite sure what they were there for. The hostess seemed quite baffled and confused.
quite funny to watch.
That's funny. The client should have been told about the supports. But, I know I've forgotten when a client has come to pick up their cake and there's lots of commotion. I always wondered what they thought if they'd never cut a stacked cake before. Now I know.
Yes, I always tell them that there are straws in there, and usually given them a quick lesson in cake cutting/straw removal, etc. It's amazing how many people think you cut a round cake into huge honking pie shaped pieces and some even thought you left the straws in......EX: client says "the straws aren't edible too??" I'm thinking, come on, give me a break!
The last wedding cake i made, i handed the biker guy that came to pick up the cake, Cake cutting directions, and he's like WOW there's directions!
Now this guy was running late and i forgot to tell him there were supports in there, Now i know what they probably thought about those
