"Hi, I'm Melissa Maggiore with Alessi Bakeries in Tampa Florida. I'm here to talk to you today about how to choose perfect wedding cake flavors for your wedding cake. Wedding cake flavor is supposed to represent the two of you, the bride and the groom. You should both bring the likes and dislikes to the table, so that way you could do a tasting of multiple different fillings and cake flavors, so you can both taste together and find an arrangement that you can both agree upon. Most bakers, and most wedding cake designers will have a large array of different types of cake flavors and actual fillings that you can put into the cake to compliment the cake. There might be over 40 different cake flavors, and maybe 40 different fillings. You should always eliminate the cake flavors that you don't really care for. If you don't care for coconut, eliminate it. If you don't care for chocolate, you can eliminate that. If you have any nut allergies, maybe eliminate all the nut fillings and nuts that are in actual cakes. Narrow it down to your 5, maybe your 10 most favorite cakes that you might like to have on your wedding cake day, and then book a tasting. You may certainly should be able to taste your cake, and make sure that it compliments you, and everything you want to have on your wedding day. Again, I'm Melissa Maggiore with Alessi Bakeries, in Tampa Florida."
