    I think it sounds delish! But make sure there is another option as some people could have a nut allergy (like my son). Maybe do each tier a different flavor?

    Exactly! I did 3 layers, so 3 different flavors. One chocolate with vanilla custard, 1 like you want, and one white cake with strawberry filling. That way everyone has something they like.

    We are having almond cake too! Good point about the nut allergy but I'm not adding a huge cost for additional flavors for a select few, we have other desserts, though, gotta love the Pittsburgh Cookie Table!

    I was really just wanting to have one flavor, I just feel like tht would be easier. So maybe I need to find another flavor!

    Have whatever flavour you and your FH want. I don't think there is a rule that says you need a certain type of cake.

    FH and I LOVE chocolate so we are having a chocolate cake.

    We are doing a butter cream cake with a whipped cream and berries filling.

    If I had the option I would have done a key lime pie as our cake since that is my favorite dessert.

    That's a great choice!

    I'm doing an almond cake with white chocolate, a white chocolate butter cream with apricot filling and marshmallow fondant (may be a mix of regular fondant with marshmallow fondant).

    First I just have to say that sounds AMAZING.

    I believe the cake is truly one of those things you can say "It's my wedding and I'm doing what I want!" It sounds like you're going to have other options so go for it!

    We had 4 flavors with almond being one of them - it was by FAR the most popular!

    We are doing gold cake with French cream and raspberry jam! The cake tasting was seriously the best part of planning!

    I know we will have 3 layer min (possibly 4). We are most likely doing chocolate w/ mocha filling, lemon velvet with strawberry cream and funfetti ( FH request)

    Sounds delicious, but I would be worried about food allergies! I would personally go with something that people will be less likely to have allergies to.

    I personally do not care who is allergic to what, sorry, I said it. Someone elses allergy is not my problem and I am not the allergy police for others.

    If you are truly allergic you should know better than to EAT ANYTHING that you think might contain an allergen. Most wedding cakes have fillings, drizzles, pastes, and toppings that are made of nuts or are made of nut oils.
