58 Days & Counting – Cake Tasting

Started off the morning with my daily coffee run sporting my statement  ring that I designed with my girlfriend from JNB Jewels! I’ve started to make some of my own jewelry {just for fun} when I have some down time …its quite therapeutic!! What do you guys think?

some more details of my arm candy down below + more of my ring party that I also designed up above with my friend Jackie :)

After my morning editorial meeting with GENLUX magazine I jetted (with an empty stomache) straight to Cakes By Rumy for my cake tasting for the wedding!

I think the hardest part was figuring out which one I loved most. To be quite honest I just love anything & everything sweet, but sadly yes.. I had to narrow it down to 1 selection. 

Can you guys take a guess which one I loved most??? (haha pretty obvious, aint it?) So I narrowed it down to 2 choices either the mango strawberry which is VERY unique & delicious or the berry chiffon which is as delicious but definitely more common. hmmmm……

After the tasting I had 2 more meetings to go to, but I seriously wanted to crawl up in a ball and fall asleep..SUGAR COMA!!! Anyways which one should I go with? the Mango Strawberry or Berry Chiffon??? Please let me know in the comment section below!!

xoxo

    With the wedding cake, always best to go with a classic light flavour. May not be super exciting, but you know it will please the majority of the guests and that’s the major thing. You look like you’ve got it under control! :)

    Mango strawberry. Mango is sweet and tangy, great for summer and the starwberry gives it this special and sophisticated taste that will definitely make every bite quite special. Yes, it is very important to please every guest but i think it is more important to please you and your significant other because after all…it’s your celebration!, you are celebrating something special and unique; your guests will love it causeyou will love it. Trust me :)
    Congrats and happy planning!

    I suggest to get the berry one because you get all sorts of flavors from all sorts or BERRIES! ;D

    Personally I would go for the mango strawberry, but wouldn’t it be cool if you could do half and half? Like, half traditional, half modern! :)

    I’d love the mango strawberry. But there might be people who don’t like mango/tropical flavors, so it might be best to stick with something more classic like the berry.

    Mango Strawberry!I think this is perfect combo.because to me strawberries are refreshing while mangos are sweet and savory!

  20. Posted June 21, 2012 at 6:38 PM | Permalink

    The strawberry mango one because it’s different and the combination of strawberry and mango go so well together. In addition, judging from the photo, you liked the strawberry mango more since you almost devoured it all. And why would you want to go with something common? It’s your special day!

    personally i would go for the chocolate flavored ones ;) because I’m a chocolate lover…. but seeing that you are more enamored with the mango strawberry cake… it looks like the winner. :) does it also match your colors? ;) )

    I’m a chocolate lovers actually if it’s up to me i will pick the chocolate one *lol* but i guess the Mango Strawberry definitely the winner for you. I think it suits you more rather the Berry Chiffon one. You’re different and unique just like the Mango Strawberry. Btw, wishing all the best for your wedding day ;)

    It’s your wedding, so choose whichever one you like! But… If you asked me, I’d go for the mango-strawberry because of it’s unique-ness. You’re only going to have this wedding once, so go crazy (but not too crazy)! Happy wedding :)

    i say strawberry mango. youre a wonderfully unique person.. and that should be shown through even little things like your wedding cake. looking back, youd be remembered for “oh yeah she had that really unique but delicious cake” .. that sounds silly but every detail counts !

  31. Posted June 22, 2012 at 12:18 AM | Permalink

    That´s difficult. Every cake looks awesome. Mango Strawberry :D

    Well i dunno but in my opinion, choco based on cakes might be intense for wedding cake, so i would prefer abit light cakes such as fruit based and as a fruit, id choose STRAWBERRY!! hehe, Congrats Lovely Chriselle!! ^^

  37. Posted June 22, 2012 at 4:17 AM | Permalink

    This cakes are making me crave for them. Even if I didn’t tasted it . I’d pick the mango strawberry. :)

  38. Posted June 22, 2012 at 5:50 AM | Permalink

    Mango Strawberry for sure! It adds a hint of creativity. Perfect for your wedding! :D

    It’s so hard to make a decision when you love them both!! Did you taste test by yourself? Would be nice to have another opinion from a 2nd taste tester – Hubby Perhaps?. Anyway, go for the one that awakened your taste buds the most – the Strawberry Mango.

    I love semi-precious stones!! You are very creative and making your own jewlery and I love the simple ring. I like to re-work my jewlery as well so I have pieces that are
    re-invented and unique.

    Dear Chris, It’s your big day!!!!! you have to choose the one you really love because the only thing that your guests will remember is how happy you were that day. It’s all about you, everybody has different tastes so you have to think mainly about yourself!!!xoxo

    The strawberry mango sounds very interesting.

    Posted June 22, 2012 at 10:25 AM | Permalink

    Get something the majority of the guests will like. You want something classic, and while Mango Strawberry sounds good, go with something more people would like: Berry… And, maybe you could have a Grooms cake or something in Mango Strawberry?

  44. Posted June 22, 2012 at 10:51 AM | Permalink

    Hy Chriselle. Huge fan!!!! 1 question: what iphone app do you use for the bokeh in your instagram photos?????? Please help :) Thanks!

    Although I would probably like the Mango one better since Mangos are my favorite fruit I know several people who dont like manogs and since you want everyone to like it I would go with the berry. Best safe than sorry. But if you really like the mango, you can always do a main cake in mango and then have one or two smaller side cakes with more common flavors for those who dont like it.

    mango strawberry. Sounds delish!

    Soooooooo difficult. I think I’d LOVE having the mango strawberry but pickier eaters will want the berry chiffon methinks, especially since mango allergies are more common than you would think. Go with the berry chiffon to be on the safe side with the guests but request a Mango Strawberry cupcake for yourself!!!

    I feel like the Mango Strawberry would be more fitting to your personality, but I’m not sure what you and your future hubby are like as a whole–I’m sure you guys make a standout, beautiful couple! But berry chiffon might be a winner to most people because it’s more common and familiar, and most people love berries, while I don’t find that many who are fond of mangos. Any who, I hope the whole wedding process is as fun as the special day itself~
    Have fun and stay stylish!

    I can’t give any advice if I don’t get to taste for myself

  50. Posted June 25, 2012 at 3:28 PM | Permalink

    Lucky you! And I would say mango strawberry. If it’s delicious and unique, it’s sure to be a hit with the guests. :)

    how about alternating layers of the two?
    mango, strawberry, & berries all go well together
    it will give something nice for everyone :)
    but i really like the mango strawberry idea :)
