Sadly, I wasn't invited to the Caribbean, but all jealousy aside, I was more than happy to make the cake for the Canadian reception for this wonderfully happy couple.
Megan and Greg wanted one thing: A cake to bring some of the ocean home for those that couldn't be with them, and did I ever have fun making that happen
I spent a few days making all the accent pieces
The cake went together like a dream, and decorating was the fastest I have ever done. The on site build was a little hectic with a hiccup in the delivery, but the cake was complete before the doors opened, which in the end is all that matters.
(I'm not going to lie... I did enjoy the small audience that collected to watch it come together.... I don't normally get to hear the reaction of my cake by the guests, just a happy 'thank you' from the newlyweds after the fact)

| I always make extra decorations, as you never know until you are building how much you will need. This turned out great; instant table decoration, and nibblies for the kiddies! |
I am still having issues with the fondant bulging and had some slight tearing, but it was easily corrected on site. I just need to figure out why this is happening.
All in all, this is the most happy I have been with the final product. It was such a stress free cake that I almost want to take on two cakes on the same day just to see if it can be done...
