So... It's years till my wedding so I needn't worry about that for a while. But at the weekend during much wedding-related chat with a few engaged friends I was asked to make a cake for one of their weddings. Apparently their caterers will allow them to bring up to three "cutting cakes" so they are asking three different friends to make them.
Problem is that I am not the world's best cake maker. My sponge cakes always tend to be on the "flat" side (think it's something to do with my oven). I have checked and cupcakes are not allowed, which is a shame cos that's sort of a speciality of mine.
The only other thing I can really do well is fridge cheesecake but that's not going to survive for hours out of the fridge!
So i need help - what sort of cakes are easy to make, and don't require crazy amounts of skill/really good kitchen equipment?!! I'm really flattered to be asked and I don't want to say no but I really don't know what to make!! ?
