 I had the awesome opportunity of speaking to Marney of Marney Cakes. She has a great passion for making beautiful cakes. She has set high standards for the quality of cakes that she produces. Only the finest natural ingredients will make it to the beautiful creations. Her passion is great, her quality is exceptional, and the taste of her cakes, delectable. The buttercream is far from anything that I have ever tasted. Choosing Marney Cakes will be a great experience all around.

Additional Questions and Answers
HOW TO KNOW IF YOU"RE GETTING REAL BUTTERCREAM, OR VEGETABLE SHORTENING ICING:  If a bakery says that you're getting authentic, all-natural buttecream made from scratch, and you're getting a snow-white icing, ask what it's made of.  Remember, butter is yellow, not white.  If it's white, unless it's merginue, it can't possibly be real butter (and can't possibly be all-natural).  It's fondant or decorator's icing (i.e., vegetable shortening) if it's white and it's not butter or meringue.
