mmmmm.... cake!

Food for our wedding has been a bit of stumbling point because of both of our diets and fairly restrictive. I can't eat wheat and Ian can't eat a plethora of things. We were very lucky to find a fantastic caterer but I still really wanted to have wedding cake. It's CAKE! Who doesn't love cake?

About a year ago Ian found this wonderful person on craigslist I believe... I could be wrong but Ian's not home to correct me. She creates recipes for people who can't eat food. Last year she created a couple bread recipes for Ian that have proved to be very useful so we thought that hopefully she could do something for us in the way of a cake.

This past Monday we went over to her place for our first tasting and I figured that we would have one choice and take it or leave it. Boy was I wrong. We had three different choices, two vanilla and one chocolate, all fantastic. Ian and I really regretted having such a big dinner before we went.

We hummed and hawed and sampled and decided on one of the vanilla cakes. Janice said that she wanted to tweak the recipe a bit and would let us know soon what the final verdict was. We also asked her to find an Ian friendly way of doing icing. It's tough when corn, dairy and most other things that go into icing are off limits.

It was very reassuring to find out that not only will we get cake, but it's going to be SO YUMMY!!!

Next step: someone to sign the papers so we can make this whole thing legal!
