When did it become okay to order a cake at last minute? Did I miss the memo?!?! In the past 3 days I have completed nine last minute cake orders.. most of them to be completed within 10-20 minutes. I almost feel like Robert Irvine in "Dinner Impossible" when he's trying to complete an amazing event in an impossible amount of time. I've had customers ask for a few rediculous cake orders, one for example was a customer who wanted a 3-tier Fairytopia cake and they wanted the cake in 2 hours. Even if I didn't have that much to do, I still would have told the customer no, and in fact I did tell the customer no. I hate to turn down the extra money, but I just can't decorate under intense pressure like that. In my last blog I talked about my ability to decorate cakes fast, but those cakes are just so basic that even 4-5 minutes for a basic double layer cake isn't unheard of. Now for the icing on the cake (so to speak): I had a customer come in yes
The Velvet Buttercream has come a long way since 2010, but I am here to document the bakery as it advances towards that amazing goal of a grand opening.
