Cake Wreck!!
Client's boyfriend insisted on carrying the cake, and well, he didnt keep it level. This was at night on a Jetty going out to a yacht..Next thing the whole top slipped to the side. I tried my best to make it look 'decent', but there was really nothing I could do short of starting over! Luckily the yacht was taking them out to sea, and a lot of bumpy waves were expected! Just so sad to see all the hard work end up looking like this. Moral of the story: CARRY YOUR OWN CAKE! :)

I struggle with letting my cakes go and I drive like a turtle while delivering one. Gasping for breath each hill, bump or lane change. Someday I guess I'll get to the point when it's easier to hand them over. I feel your pain. great work though!

That is too bad. I can imagine how you felt. My husband won't touch my cakes. I made a 3 tiered cake for our niece and it was quite heavy. When I asked him if he would carry it for me, he said "No Way".

Unfortunately Frances
Not much you can do once a cake leaves your premises. Cake did look pretty. I know a decorator who doesn't drive, can't deliver her cakes.......she boxes her cakes, and gives instructions on transport. She said she stopped worrying years ago once the cake was gone. Made her crazy. Couldn't do anything about it.
