Hey, I need a recommendation for a bakery or pastry shop that does fake wedding cakes...🕺

We're looking at the area around the outskirts of Chicago, maybe stretching toward Indianapolis or Columbus—basically where those regions meet since our wedding is right in that middle ground.

We actually tried a cake from King’s Bakery—someone already mentioned them above. We liked their fruit cake and the idea of having a "real" tier for the cutting ceremony (just for us and the wedding party), while having pre-sliced pieces ready for the guests. Does anyone know of other high-quality bakeries that offer this kind of setup?

We'd go with King's, but honestly, they're a bit flaky when it comes to getting back to messages, plus the travel costs are adding up. So, I'm hunting for an alternative...
A slice there is pretty $4.50 so if anyone has suggestions for something more budget-friendly, that would be awesome! 👍

Thanks in advance 🙂

Jessica Barrett3 said:Sweet, thanks a ton! I'll definitely check that out. I figured I could order something like that, but I wanted to see if there was actually anything available at local pharmacies or similar spots here. But yeah, this works too 😁

There's something similar at CVS—I read somewhere that girls use that anti-chafing gel on their thighs and swear by it. Basically this:

The packaging is a bit small, but I think it's around $15 and lasts a long time. I use it on my feet for friction and blisters, and it's been a great solution for me. 👍

I also noticed the Glide product mentioned above says "anti-blister," so it's meant for blisters too. It should be basically the same thing, or at least very similar, to what you find at CVS.
You might want to grab that one locally just to test it out—it's cheap enough that it's worth a shot. 😉

Hmm... I don't really remember, but they definitely weren't more than $17—not that I'd pay more than 😛 for socks these days anyway.
I think they were maybe 30-$13, something like that...

BTW, when I went to grab them, I went there specifically because I heard they had them in stock. Asked the clerk, but she had absolutely no clue what I was talking about.🙄
So, I ended up hunting them down myself amidst a massive pile of other socks. If you ever find yourself in that spot, just a heads-up: you've gotta do a little "digging" through the store.😉

I picked up some tights like those at Target 😉

The only difference is mine don't have that gap between the big toe and the next one—everything is just one continuous piece.
Roughly like this 😉

(except mine aren't knee-highs, they're full length, you know)

Anyway, I was worried they might slip since they lack that little toe divider to hold them in place, but they actually stayed put—that band at the bottom is pretty sturdy 👍
