So thanks everyone who took part in my cake poll. Douoble and triple thanks to the people who reminded me I should have been more specific in my directions - I wanted ONE CAKE CHOICE each, not just checking off them ALL! OI! But I blame that on ME, not anyone else, because, after all, they all sounded damn tasty.

I pulled the descriptions off the online menu for Konditor Meister The visit today brought a WAY bigger menu with more choices, including a Brandy Chocolate choice.

However, I and 5 of you *grins* chose the Chocolate Champange Frosting. I wasn't able to sample it, as they do not make those "liquor" cakes for sampling, but hearing it called a "liquor cake" was enough.

So I'm getting a Chocolate Torte Cake, with the Chocolate Champange frosting, purple buttercream roses, green buttercream leaves, and a perky Happy Birthday message on it.

My coworker made fun of me for being SO specific, and I think back to Ruthie's wedding where she had diagrams of leaves she wanted, and just shook my head. I frankly was not demanding AT ALL. I did insist on purple roses, but hey, it's my cake! *grins* While mocking me she was ALSO buying a box full of their pastries for the office. I got the Tiramisu and I'm glad I did, because I was having buyers remorse, then realized the Tiramisu so SO rich it would have detracted from the eating enjoyment. Yay!

SO - how to get a piece of cake? Why Attend the Black Sun Festival in New Haven CT of course! I'm down there working for the Man (the [livejournal.com profile] poetman to be exact) for the weekend. And you know, I can pretend that everyone is there to pay attention to me. (although I don't really think that and I don't do things like make the WHOLE WEEK my birthday, or even the month, which I'd seen some people doing. Yikes.) I'm just having a few friends over *snerk* some bands play, and a cake.

And MAYBE Saturday we'll get an ice cream cake from Coldstone. But that's a big if. But I only got the 10" cake for approximately 20 people. so it's not like I'm sharing it with the WHOLE Class. (I never bought into that "bring enough for the class" bullshit.)

Ok I should be working, between caking and lunch and other stuff I'm behind.
