Our cake tasted GREAT. We had two flavors: devil's food with white chocolate icing, and white cake with lemon curd. Both were delicious and surprisingly moist. However, despite providing the bakery with instructions and color swatches, the cake didn't come out looking as I'd asked. The color of the icing was too intense (a SHOCKING yellow) and the baker's, despite photos in the bakery of cakes with sugar paste flowers, claimed that they couldn't do them. They wouldn't even offer guidance to my florist, who was pressed with bringing in fresh flowers--but didn't know how they were to go on.
