I called a potential wedding cake vendor today, and I was both shocked and excited when he offered me this option...
He said he would put together a fake cake (it would have a piece cut out into it that would have real cake that we could do our ceremony with as well as a anniversary topper) and then do a sheet cake. He said no one but him or I would know that the cake was "fake". The cost and savings were fabulous!! He quoted me $275 and we will have both a beautiful "fake cake" and enough real cake to feed 100 people.
Any other brides out there doing a "fake cake"??
