Calling all the bitter OMs that had cheese towers instead of/as well as a wedding cake I have a quick question. (Those who are not bitter and those not having a cheese tower but just want to put their 2 pence worth in are also welcome)
I'm having a cheese tower (and a dessert table or wedding cake too I'm greedy like that)
Assuming the tower is stacked something like this
You have the obligatory photo taken of the 'cake' cutting then what did you do with it?
Just let guests hack away at at the hearts content? I'm feeling inclined to just do this although concerned upper tiers may end up falling on the floor as the bottom tiers get hacked away.
Have it taken away and cut up like a traditional cake? I am not really feeling this idea as would like guest to get stuck in themselves and also any leftovers wont keep as well are larger chunks.
Provide additional boards for the cheese to be cut on? I have a nice slate cheese board and a nice wooden board already so was thinking of possibly just having those next to the cheese tower so the tower can be dismantled and hacked without the risk of toppling.
Any words of wisdom?
