Benjamin Edwards9, my advice is simple: buy a pound of assorted pastries and start tasting. You won't be able to miss. Their sweets are excellent.

I’m going to say this and take the heat if I have to—laugh all you want—but wouldn't it be possible to mold a little figure out of that fondant?

Lawrence Wilson77, I am genuinely at a loss for where to shop. Have you checked everything out yet? I’m going to go take a look...

I caught on, though I certainly went on a bit of a tangent. No, allergies didn't cross my mind—not even for a second. And I already knew they were walnuts because I can't stand the taste.

To be honest, I haven't given much thought to allergies. I once hosted a guest with a gluten intolerance, and naturally, he couldn't touch any of our traditional baked goods. I simply adjusted his menu slightly—avoiding breaded items, pasta, or croquettes, and swapping noodle soup for a vegetable broth instead. I've also had guests with diabetes, but I didn't bother placing any special orders for them.

I believe the standard is about 8 ounces per person. The venue told us we’ll need roughly 65 pounds of dessert for 120 guests. We haven't finalized the headcount yet, so the total amount remains uncertain; our range is quite wide at 120 to 180 people, though I’m expecting closer to 150. As for the cake, they suggested five tiers. For my side of the family, we did 25 pounds for about 80 people, while his family did 22 pounds for roughly 40.

Heh, I realized the delivery was $567🤣. Given it’s from Vinny, the price isn't even an issue; his cakes are top-tier.

Shameful. A total disgrace.😠 I’ll go with the parfait. It sits much lighter on the stomach.

Our cake is already included in the menu, but we’re stuck deciding between chocolate parfait or Black Forest😍

Order both.😬 They are both incredible.🙂

They gave us the same estimate: 30kg for about 120 to 150 people.

The stuff from Ive11 comes out of Indianapolis, Bond Pro, $16/kg... check his previous posts; Ive11 also provides a phone number via DM.😉
