Let them eat cake! September 14, 2007

Not just any cake but wedding cake.  One of the perks of my job is the opportunity to taste wedding cakes (most times - I do let the guests get a piece first!!)  And while a so so cake is unfortunately common,  a really good wedding cake is a rare and wonderful thing!  My shout out for the best wedding cake I’ve ever had goes to Loretta of Cakes by Loretta!

I first had her cake at Debbie and Timi’s wedding in 2004.

Not only were the cakes beautifully decorated,

they were the best cakes I had ever tasted!!  Did I mention cakes, plural?  Debbie was so impressed with her cakes she got two since she couldn’t make up her mind!  (Debbie, right there with you!)   I was lucky enough to have a huge piece of the most amazingly moist key lime cake and a little nibble of the chocolate cake remains (there were not many remains!)  If you’re in the DC metro area, I urge you to put Loretta on your list of cake people to try.  You’ll be glad you did!
