YUM! I also love vanilla cake with mocha buttercream. But so far my all time favorite cake was a napoleon cake. OMG had it for my daughter's christening. It was basically a huge napoleon. Chocolate cream on the bottom, vanilla on top. Crispy layers betweenChat Icon

I'm with you sister but not practical.

I've been looking at wedding cake sites.

What do you guys think of red velvet or marble with chocolate ganache and raspberry preserves?

So hard to decide. Trying to please everyone.

Re: Cake help

I like Maple frosting. Maybe a brown sugar cake with maple frosting. Yum.

Oh.. but if you are trying to please everyone I'd probably go for a white or yellow cake with a fruit filling and a chocolate frosting or ganache. Maybe butter cake, raspberry filling and chocolate ganache?

Yummo.

I think we landed on Red Velvet and buttercream. Fighting for a vanilla cheese cake filling but DH is giving me stress.

We are also offering 3 desserts.

While I agree with you DH is against it.

I'm fighting a losing battle. His family has their heads up their butts with me doing everything and trying to keep the peace.

I almost caused WWIII last night.

Then I wouldn't go red velvet. Your guests will expect cream cheese frosting and will most likely be disappointed when they taste buttercream. I would google and show him ANY recipe and prove that that's what goes with it.

Buttercream is still good with Red Velvet, though I agree not AS good as cream cheese is. But the difference isn't big enough that I think guests would be disappointed. Cake is delicious either way! lol! If it's going to cause WWII, I'd let it go. Chat Icon
