  4. I saw the cake lady on tv and she said there was one flaw, so I went through all the pictures. It seems one flower in the bottom most layer was not up to her expectation. I loved the cake. Also, when we had the wedding breakfast at my house, I had served British digestive biscuits. ;) Totally rad that he had ordered a cake made of biscuits!
