She didn't mention that none of her cakes are covered in fondant, which is the big craze these days for the wedding circuit. Fondant has a texture and taste that most people don't care for, so they end up picking it off. Her cakes are covered in standard buttercream icing. All her cakes have the same look though. Sugarflowers. Iced cake. Next? But why mess with simple perfection. http://mespace.wordpress.com
