Bluebells Cakery

Over the holidays, I got focused on the wedding.  One of the most exciting things was finally tasting  Bluebells Cakery's cakes.  I've been rather obsessed since I saw her rosette and ruffle cakes on Kiwi blog, The Moving Picture.  All other wedding cake plans went out the window, but I had no idea if they would taste as great as they looked?

I drove out to Hillsborough, ordered myself a lemon cupcake and iced coffee, and sat with the pictures and menu of cakes. It was so peaceful being surrounded by cute baking, fresh flowers and vintage home baking chic. Then I took the first bite, and I knew.  Soft, fluffy with zesty lemon cream cheese icing - it was pure perfection.

Karla was so lovely, taking time from her very busy kitchen to talk to me about cake options (and let me take lots of photos). Thank you again Karla for a lovely afternoon in your little slice of heaven.

Head over to the Bluebells Cakery Facebook for lots of pretty cake pictures.

As for the rest of the wedding update - I've bought my wedding shoes, had my 1st dress fitting, found our wedding rings, Mum's currently making the Bridesmaid dresses, booked the entertainment, and we've started planning meetings with our venue.

It's getting into the real details now, which is getting both scary and very VERY exciting.
