Default Instead of a wedding cake......

I was at an event last night at work and we had one of these......

http://www.chocolatedelight.co.uk/

Absolutely amazing it was.....an endless chocolate fountain with profiteroles........Strawberries......marshmellows ........fudge........pineapple.....
all to dip in,

Mmmmm felt so sick! What a cool idea instead of a normal wedding cake, I wish I had had one!

Oh I keep seeing these wonderful chocolate creations ... I so wish money was no object!!

There are like works of art too aren't they?

I'm hoping to go for something from a Italian bakery for qa fraction of the cost - my FIL had a fanstatic italian cheesecake type thing for MIL 60th birthday - and it looked amazing!

Think I need to do more reasearch - especially the taste testing kind ....

Hehe I am with you on that count.

As we were running the event last night I thought I shouldn't really eat the food but my will power is not exsistant so I caved in and tried it.....

Then the guy who runs the fountain cornered me and said 'do you work here' felt so naughty....but he just wanted a chat about other events!

Tee hee

I found these people but it worked out about a grand!!!!!http://www.theoriginalchocolatefountain.com/
I spose if you paying £500-£600 for a cake it's a few quid more but as our cake was free it was a flippin lot of money

That sounds amazing but I woulnt want it! I dont have a sweet tooth so itd go to waste, although Mark would absolutley love it.

Some of the cakes you can get are so amazing now if a bit OTT. Marks cousin had one which stood about a foot and a bit high and was made all out of white chocolate and had cherubs carved in it! No one wanted to cut it though!

I would kill for choccies, any time of day or night but agree that so many of them cost so much - like choccywoccydoodah - it's only okay if you have billions to spend, our cake was a freebie for our parents and it saved us hundreds from what I can tell!

Karen!! When I was a small child I read Cinderella a million times and your wedding is going to be exactly how I imagined hers to Prince Charming. What a fairytale cake. Will go lovely with your pink gold and Ivory colour scheme!

I've just told Jonathan what you've said, as that is so lovely of you, and you've nearly got me in tears!

Thank you so so much for your kind words!
