MY KITCHEN SMELLS LIKE CHOCOLATE . . .


I'm busily working on a wedding cake for tonight and my kitchen smells like chocolate. Small wedding. Wedding cake serves 80 and groom cake serves 40. Mike and I will deliver the cakes at 4:30 and then stay to photograph the wedding. Because we love weddings. (We also design wedding storybook albums.)

I'm also working on a cake for a fund raiser. This event is to raise money to help pay for an evening gown for a Miss Oklahoma contestant. It's supposed to be beauuutiful. Should be.

The picture is a 50th wedding anniversary cake I made several years ago. The husband ran a furniture repair business for many years and they collect antiques together. The finish on the cake is . . . you guessed it. Chocolate. The pearls, hankie, pocket watch, drawer pulls, doily(spelling?) and picture frame are all made from chocolate. The couple inside the heart was their cake topper at their wedding.

I'll walk this morning. But I won't be dieting. I'll try, but my kitchen smells like chocolate.

I've been staring at this cake for a few minutes now. I called over the husband and child to look at it. I'm going to call my friend and tell her to take a look, too!

Wow.

That's a cake?! How on earth do you make a doily (sp?) out of chocolate?

I stared at it for at least a minute before reading the blog entry, trying to decide whether or not it's a cake.

Wow.
