This is going a ways back. But once, my soon-to-be wife told me
that I could choose any groom's cake I wanted. Considering she had
chosen the most well respected cake company in town,
Dallas Affairs Cake Company,
this appeared to be a pretty safe statement. Think again. You never
know how bad someone's taste can be. I am pretty sure the impression my
"cake of pure class" had on our guest was pure "amazement." I don't
know if they were more amazed that someone was able to create a cake
that looked like a cactus...or that someone actually decided to
have it as their wedding cake. Many of the guests actually thought these
were just floral decor and asked where the grooms cake was.
Not sure why us guys find choosing our groom's cake to be the
ultimate moment of self-brand expression. At least these other two
cakes make sense. A cake with a hunting theme and big ducks tells
everyone..."Hey man, I love to hunt. That's who I am! Deeeeaaaaal with
it. Or I'll shoot you." Another local favorite is anything with a UT
theme. Obvious message is "my love for my school knows no limits." But
all a set of 3 cacti says is "Hey, I'm a total idiot," or "Stay away
from this cake, man!"
Now to be fair, they really do make great cakes and take their
craft very seriously. In fact, as you can see, they are very serious
about helping grooms express their true nature with these tasty works
of art. A little too good.
Congratulations to a great small business. Perfecting cake art for over 20 years.
