I like dress 1 and 2 equally. That Whitecake Sugars is magical! I can envision a Christmas themed wedding for certain with that! I also love the brown and pink, but I'd have to do something more like Tiffany blue and green, but I love the dots, the flowers, it's adorable. Good choice of word. Oh, I do so enjoy seeing people in love. Your face shows it so much.

What a beautiful cake! Sigh..I loved all the wedding hoopla and wish them a long and happy life together. I must say, I was more intrigued with William's groom's cake than the actual wedding cake...Oprah had Diana's former chef on yesterday and he said it was a biscuit cake which I've never heard of. Looks like crunched up cookies coated in chocolate and shaped into a cake. Has anyone made this before? Anyways, I think I'm going to have to make this! Chocolate Biscuit cake Ingredients 1/2 tsp. butter , for greasing 8 ounces Rich tea biscuits 4 ounces unsalted butter , softened 4 ounces granulated sugar 4 ounces dark chocolate , for the cake 1 egg 8 ounces dark chocolate , for coating 1 ounce chocolate , for decorating Directions To make cake: Lightly grease a 6" x 2 1/2" cake ring and place on a tray on a sheet of parchment paper. Break each of the biscuits into almond-size pieces by hand and set aside. Cream the butter and sugar in a bowl until the mixture starts to lighten. Melt the 4 ounces of dark chocolate and add to the butter mixture while constantly stirring. Beat the egg into the mixture. Fold in the biscuit pieces until they are all coated with the chocolate mixture. Spoon the mixture into the prepared cake ring. Try to fill all of the gaps on the bottom of the ring because this will be the top when it is unmolded. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours. To coat and decorate: Remove the cake from the refrigerator and let it stand while you melt the 8 ounces of dark chocolate. Slide the ring off the cake and turn it upside down onto a cake wire. Pour the melted chocolate over the cake and smooth the top and sides using a palette knife. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature. Carefully run a knife around the bottom of the cake where the chocolate has stuck to the cake wire and lift it onto a tea plate. Melt the remaining 1 ounce of chocolate and use to decorate the top of the cake. .. Here is a link that might be useful: Picture of the grooom's cake

Thanx! My wife baked a popcorn cake for our daughter's wedding. When it came time to cut it the groom tried an ordinary knife which didn't work. He then pulled out a real big knife, maybe a sword type thing - nope. Next he pulled out a 3 foot meat saw I just happened to have, put one knee on the table and tried to saw thru - nope again. Next may have been a hatchet and I believe the last straw was either an ax or splitting maul. All staged of course. Everybody enjoyed the whole thing except the brides father who took a dim view of such purile amusements at such a solemn occasion. Which is why he was not allowed to pay for the wedding. Which is one reason I am married to his ex-wife. I danced with the Women's Libber from across the street (she asked me).

Here is the recipe for scones that I used. It comes from a National Trust Traditional British Recipes book I bought from the BBC.. Measurements have been converted to US. (Only to be eaten with a large hat on, a cup of tea, and listening to the English national anthem of course.) Scones: 1 cup flour 1 tsp baking powder One half stick butter (I used low fat) One half cup brown sugar One half cup raisins 1 egg One quarter cup milk (again, low fat is fine) Milk to brush the tops Preheat oven 450. In large mixing bowl, sift flour and baking powder and gently combine. Rub in diced butter w finger tips until like breadcrumbs. Add sugar and raisins and combine evenly. Make well in center of mix and slowly add milk and egg (already mixed together) Stir mix w fork to make smooth dough. Knead slightly to make ball and put on floured surface. Roll to about 1 inch thickness and cut into circles w cookie cutter etc. Put on greased baking tray; brush w milk. Bake 15 mins. Also works if you add nuts, cranberries etc� (but less English that way!) Serve warmed up and cut in half, with butter then dollop of strawberry jam, and some type of whipped cream on top. Yum.
