Wedding cake help needed...

[chipo]

I have been roped into asked to make my friends wedding cake. I have made 1 wedding type cake before ie 3 tiers (pic on profile) but it was for a family birthday and didn't have to be perfect.

My friends hates cake so has given me complete freedom in terms or decoration, so I have asked her fiance and he likes chocolate.

I have thought that this type of thing www.rainbowsugarcraft.co.uk/images/Thumbnails/Fruitsof_the_forest%20203x250.jpg and I think it can hide all manner of sins. It doesn't have to be perfect as they are a tight budget and are asking friends to contribute if they can.

What do you think?

My next question is how do you stick the cigarellos to the side of the cake?

All suggestions will be greatfully received.

It looks great.

Could you do a ganache to stick the cigarellos on?

I love the pics on your profile

Thanks superbunny, anyone else have any ideas?

We had brilliant cup cakes all iced in the colours we chose - lilac and cream - sved any messing with cutting it up etc. Try that?

DH (to be!), DD and I made our wedding cake(s). We did 3 lovely gooey chocolate ones covered in chocolate ganache and strawberries. Didn't stack them up or anything and they went down a treat.
The chocolate-covered photos of DD eating stirring the mixture are great

I'm rubbish at making cupcakes always come out dry.

Ohh that's a shame as they looked great and they were so easy to do - we got the bridesmaids to wander round offering plates of them (sigh) [reminisce emoticon]
