Even though we’re eloping to Vegas I have a cake already picked out, it happened by accident. Some very dear friends gave us a present of a bottle of good champagne so we went to a bakery nearby, the Sugar Rush bakery, and bought a selection of cupcakes. I’m a sucker for cupcakes decorated with nonperils so I bought a vanilla cupcake with raspberry filling and white chocolate frosting, which isn’t something I’d normally try. It was unexpectedly good with champagne. So good, in fact, that I decided it was going to be our wedding cake. (This was before the elopement plans were solid.) The bakery makes it as a special order cake called the High ‘n Mighty, a four layer cake that comes in three sizes to serve between 12 and 30 people. This cake has convinced me we need to have a small champagne reception for our friends here in town just to have an excuse to order it.
The Sugar Rush bakery also has wedding menus, including cakes, cupcakes and a dessert buffet. They offer tastings, which we’re going to go in for since I’m hoping to find since that as long as we’re gonna have a small reception we might as well have a chocolate cake too.
