How to enjoy a wedding cake. Twice.

Step 1: Order your wedding cake from the Cake Lady. She is AWESOME! And you get to taste test the cakes at her house before you order.

Step 2: Enjoy your wedding cake at your reception. This is actually real cake that tastes like good cake--not the gross-tasting wedding cakes we all hate. And it has real frosting. No fondant stuff.

Step 3: Have your mom package the top layer of your wedding cake exactly as the cake lady has instructed.

Step 4: Wait 1 year. Hope your brothers don't eat it. (This was a close call.)

Step 5: Go dig the cake out of your mom's freezer. You may have to chisel it out of the ice.

Step 6: Open the ice cream bucket it has been chillin' in.

Step 7: Remove the tin-foil wrapped cake from the ice cream bucket.

Step 8: Unwrap Layer 1 of tin foil.

Step 9: Unwrap Layer 2 of tinfoil. (It's kind of like opening a tin foil dinner!)

Step 10: Think, "I wonder if this is going to be any good. It kinda looks funny."

Step 11: Cut the cake. Again.

Step 12: Serve yourself (and your spouse) up a slice. Think again, "Really? Why do people do this?...Because it's tradition!"

Step 13: Take a bite.

Step 14: Enjoy your perfectly moist and delicious wedding cake.

Seriously...it was SO GOOD! We got German Chocolate for our top layer and with this awesome way of preserving it, it tasted so good! Even after it sitting in the freezer for a year. I couldn't believe it. The Cake Lady ROCKS!!!!!!!

How fun that you guys waited a whole year to eat yours. I heard that they aren't that good after a year in the freezer. It's nice to know that yours lasted all that time. (we ate our top layer at our one month mark). And congrats to the two of you on your anniversary!!
