the great cake challenge



my lovely sister is getting married in 11 months. and she has asked me to make her her wedding cakes, PLURAL! she has requested seven, yes, SEVEN different types of cakes for her wedding. i have NEVER made a wedding cake, let alone seven of them. however, because i love her that much, i told her i would do it. bear with me on this one people. its going to be a long process and i will probably post about this on numerous occasions. i have eleven months to get these 10 inch cakes ready, recipes and all. let's see how this one goes...

here is her list:
1. Chantilly (have NO IDEA how to make it)
2. Blueberry cheesecake or other local berry (made it)
3. Pineapple upside-down (made it)
4. Vegan chocolate (made it)
5. Red velvet (made it)
6. Lemon w/ coconut shavings (never heard of it)
7. Spice/carrot cake (made it in cupcake form...) 

seven 10 inch single/double layer cakes, here i come!!
