gmoakes01 Posts: 5134	Posted: Wednesday September 26, 2012 11:32 AM The cake is beautiful and the stand impressive. The picture would have been so much prettier without the utility cart at the top of your cake

grammasue Posts: 6121	Posted: Wednesday September 26, 2012 1:00 PM Thanks so much everyone !! I agree, the background is not very pretty in the pic. We delivered the cake early,and the set-up for the reception was just beginning. We delivered the cake already stacked using the Cakestacker System. That system is amazing!!! It didn't budge, even when we had to cross seven speed bumps to enter the venue!!

grammasue Posts: 6121	Posted: Wednesday September 26, 2012 1:05 PM To get the purple shade, I started with a bright pink using Wilton's Rose Pink and then added Americolor's Electric Blue a drop at a time until I got the shade that I needed.

dead goose Posts: 440	Posted: Wednesday September 26, 2012 1:46 PM Love your cake! I too purchased the cakestacker system and love it. We drove from near Chicago Ill to Lake Geneva Wisconson and the cake didn't even budge.

preetscake Posts: 3504	Posted: Wednesday September 26, 2012 3:14 PM Beautiful cake!Love the flowers! I have to make a purple 3 tier wedding cake too in October..I wish I was using something white for contrast....but I am covering the sides of tiers with black fondant lace! I already know it is going to be a disaster ,lookwise! But that is exactly what bride wants! Wish me luck!:-(
