For The Love Of Cake

One of the things I look forward to when I'm invited to a wedding is the cake!  Admittedly, I love cake.  That being said, some cakes are better than others.  This week, I wanted to share with you some cakes that are not only gorgeous, but they taste good as well.  All these cakes come from local bakeries with amazing reputations for making wonderful weddings cakes.


These cakes from Let Them Eat Cake in Valley Junction at 405 Maple in West Des Moines are amazing.  Vicente makes beautifully, delicious cakes.  It was difficult to only choose a few examples!   More examples can be found on their Facebook page as well as their website.

wedding cake! We might be a bit bias, but we
