Don't get me wrong, it looks absolutely stunning and you can sculpt just about anything with it, but let’s be honest—it tastes like sweetened Play-Doh. I’d much rather serve a cake that actually tastes delicious, even if it isn't a visual masterpiece, than have something that looks like a work of art but leaves everyone disappointed after the first bite. That’s just my philosophy, anyway.

Regarding the idea of using real flowers as decoration, I have this nagging worry that actual blooms might bleed their juices into the frosting—you know, that bitter sap that leaks out once you start cutting into them. Perhaps the trick would be to just tuck the flowers on a few minutes before serving? Though, then again, maybe I'm overthinking it and they don't even leave a trace. 😕

Personally, I’m leaning toward a rich chocolate cake for the wedding reception, but just imagine if we went with a jet-black wedding cake instead?! Good grief!

Honestly, who cares if it’s brown? There are some really gorgeous ones out there, and they look absolutely delicious 🙂

So, I was told I should probably ask about this here too. What’s everyone’s take on psychotherapy when dealing with schizophrenia, psychosis, and things like that? Has anyone actually gone through it and have some specific experiences to share? I’ve heard it can be incredibly effective for some people, so I was just curious to hear your thoughts... 😕

I honestly don't know all the specific names, but at the last wedding I went to out in the Midwest, about 90% of everything was made with walnuts. And since I'm allergic... 😢 I mean, it's the kind of allergy where it gets hard to breathe, so I just had to sit there and watch everyone else eat while trying to stay safe 😠

Thanks so much!

Gosh, could someone remind me which bakery in Sacramento we were talking about? I completely lost my train of thought 😳
