Decisions, Decisions (Van's Bakery)

Today we had a fun OC day (more photos later). We ended up at the Westminster branch of Van's Bakery, and I saw this cake:
This is not to say I love it and it's my idea of perfect, but I do like it a lot. So I'm thinking if I got one without the lowest layer, no little silver balls, a solid ribbon, and about half as many flowers, I could be really happy with this cake. And even after the hotel's service charge for outside bakeries, it's about the same price as the hotel's vendor for about two or three times as much cake.
So what do you think, readers? Obviously I have to try the cake, but if both places have relatively delicious cake, wouldn't it be more fun to have a giant cake? I think the cake from Cake Divas (ordered through the hotel) would be like the second, third, and fourth layers on this cake or a little smaller.

  • Pretty! :) Def try it out though... I found Van's cakes to be great! But the frosting.. 'meh'... also I'm not sure of they deliver... which might be an issue to be worked out.. :)

  • I don't know, I don't like it. But it's YOUR wedding so whatever you say goes.

  • If you're really concerned about the appearance of your cake and being economical, there's always the "fake cake" option. I know, nothing says classy like an in the kitchen sheet cake. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070612/ap_on_fe_st/fake_cakes_1;_ylt=Am.v4oCIYre4kGYRo73gyH8E1vAI
