cake

i woke up at 11. omg it's taken me 2.5 hours to have lunch and try to get cake organised for david's birthday. who knew ordering cake was so difficult? it took forever to compare sizes and prices and calculate just how much cake i need to go around 40 people.

we were a tad too late to order the specialty large cake, which apparently needs 7 days in advance and we only have 5; so boys and girls if you ever need to feed 36 people or so and you want a cake from lindt, give them a call one week prior. the lady on the phone told me that 'all our cakes are handmade' which sounded impressive until i realised.. hang on - aren't all cakes handmade anyway??

so these are the cakes:
'Opera' which the website describes as "luxurious cake is made from thin layers of dark chocolate ganache, coffee butter cream & almond sponge that has been soaked in coffee syrup. The dark chocolate topping is adorned with with 23 carat gold leaf."


and the 'St Moritz' which is apparently their most popular cake - Rich silky tiers of dark, milk &
white chocolate mousse are separated by thin layers of almond cake. The decorative top of this delicious cake is created from tiles of Lindt dark chocolate, dusted with cocoa powder.

YUM? :) i do hope davo likes it.

and now it's nearly 2 and i haven't even begun finance. RAWR. on the upside, i'm slowly getting my voice back.
