When we got married back in 1999 we thought it would be fun (and much more personal) to make our own wedding cake (and grooms cake), so Nancy and I took a cake decorating class together. We both loved Italian Creme and decided that would be our cake.
Let me tell you something, if you can survive a couple of days making and decorating a wedding cake together in a tiny kitchen, that's a pretty good indicator that your marriage is going to work. We burnt out several cheap mixers, fought like dogs and came out with a really nice 3-tier cake and a Welsh-themed three feathers grooms cake.So as today is my birthday, Nancy asked me what kind of cake I wanted and I said Italian Creme. She and Gavin made it last night - a much larger kitchen, a powerful kitchenaid mixer and only one tier makes all the difference.
It was delicious, and I will pay for it with 25 miles of hills tomorrow.
