A “Deer Jen” Letter?

June 7, 2009 by cakegrl

Yes, I know that should be “dear”, but I’m a sucker for bad puns. I’m also a sucker for brides who let me know they loved their cake. Check out this amazing email I received today from a fabulous couple from ‘08.

Hey Jen!
One year ago today you made us the cakes of our dreams. I never really had the chance to properly thank you for what an amazing job you did with both the wedding cake and the grooms cake. You just took my vision and ran with it, and that’s what I loved about you. You are a true artist! I followed your instructions closely on how to preserve the top tier so that one year later it tastes just as great as it did the day we got married and you were right on. Tonight we enjoyed that delicious cake one more time, and it was just as moist as it was on our wedding day. Not one ounce of it had dried out or hardened. It was truly amazing! Thanks again for your artistic inspirations, and fantastic baking abilities! Attached are pictures of both cakes in case you forgot what they looked like. Our wedding was on June 7, 2008 at Orchard Vali in LaFayette, NY. Thanks again for making my cake dreams come true!!

Jenn (Weddle) Myrto and John Myrto

Jenn and John’s cakes were a major challenge, the wedding cake was something I hadn’t attempted before and really put my carving abilities to the test. The groom’s cake was a surprise for John and I still can remember the look on his face - and that of the whole bridal party. It really made all the hours and hours of carving and sculpting worth every second.

Happy Anniversary to Jenn and John! Thank YOU for letting me be part of your memories in this way! And thanks so much for letting me know how much you still enjoy your cake.
