Amazing Wedding Cakes, Part II

Our engagement party was fantastic! Jose and I had a great time entertaining our family, friends, and one other nefarious character, Jenny Ho, a very angry Chinese woman in the green sweater dress.


After going back and forth with Frances on the canape menu for our event we finally decided on the following appetizers:

Tailor-Made Hot Wings w/ Blue Cheese Crumble
Waylon Brisket Sliders
Squash
Spring Rolls w/ Raisin Puree
Herbed Goat Cheese on Toast w/ Honey

Curry Dusted Popcorn

Champagne Toast


(Tailor Restaurant, 525 Broome Street)

The general con census was the food was great. The sliders and goat cheese appetizers were the group favorites.

And here comes the cake... a 3ft tall chocolate tree holding the most enormous beehive complete with buzzing bees, dripping honey and a carved heart with the initials J+Z. It was beyond amazing. Just let Lauri work her magic and its impossible to be disappointed. Go Cake Alchemy. It was really awesome.

The taping went smoother this time and I think spoke articulately, with a touch more elegance than the consultation, however poor Jose was nervous. He is such a cutie. He isn't as tough as he seems. I love my worker bee! However I think we are done with reality tv... it's just not our medium!
...more photos coming soon...
