I have been making cakes for a living for a long long time.
It is all produced at
www.mypastrychef.com
We have had a licensed store front since 1995.
We were chosen best Louisiana wedding cake July 07, by People Magazine

Yes wedding cakes are costly, generally a great deal of time and expertise is involved with the large tiered cakes.
Good Luck with your wedding planning!
