Weddings/Creating Your Wedding Cake

< Wedding Primer

THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR THE DELUXE WEDDING PACKAGE

Disclaimer

For the purposes of this tutorial, and to ensure that we are capturing as many things as possible, the default for each person, space, or item will be identified as the following:

*Spouse1 - this person has purchased the license and/or obtained it.  In the examples listed here, this person is female.
*Spouse2 - this is the person who will be marrying the license holder.  In the examples listed here, this person is male.
*Package Type - this will always be deluxe so that we can handle the largest amount of data at once.  All other packages have fewer items.  Where we can, we will note the differences.
*Wedding Hall - this will always be Kraken's Fall, but you can visit any of the Wedding Halls in the lands that are open.
*Wedding Planner - this will always be Anne, but your wedding planner can be anyone that is associated with a wedding hall.

It is important to note that married couples may be any of these combinations: female/female, female/male, male/female, male/male.

It is also important to note that meeting with the Wedding Planner only requires one Spouse and that it doesn't matter if it is Spouse 1 or Spouse 2.  Both spouses can enter the wedding hall.  Both spouses can handle this portion of the planning stage.  It is not, however, a requirement.

The Right Cake for the Right Package

If you have a Choice or Classic Wedding Package then you will be selecting your wedding cake using the instructions found on the Creating Your Wedding Menu page.

This page deals with customizations for the Deluxe Wedding Package only.

Crave Dining

If you have already created your wedding menu then you are familiar with Crave Dining. In the event that you are not, we've included some directions for you below:

Directions to Crave Dining

• Enter any Wedding Hall.

The Importance of Samples

As you build your wedding cake with your baker you will want to ask for samples. Samples are an important part of making sure the cake is to your specification. They are also the only way to SET the CAKE that you design.

For example: SpouseOne has designed an entire cake, but once done designing she's curious that other random designs the baker could come up with.

BEFORE getting a sample of the cake she just designed, she asks the baker about random designs. The baker doesn't realize she doesn't want her cake and so the baker randomizes the design.

In order to save your cake, you must do the following:

1. Design Your Cake
2. ASK BAKER FOR SAMPLE
3. GIVE BAKER {cake}

That will result in the following:

A cheerful baker says, "You have chosen to serve a mocha-frosted pistachio wedding cake festooned with sage candy monkeyflowers at your wedding.  Excellent choice!"  A cheerful baker clears away your cake.

This is also true if you are having the baker randomize a cake for you.

In order to save your random cake, you must do the following:

1. ASK BAKER ABOUT RANDOM
2. ASK BAKER FOR SAMPLE
3. GIVE BAKER {cake}

That will result in the following:

A cheerful baker says, "You have chosen to serve a mocha-frosted pistachio wedding cake festooned with sage candy monkeyflowers at your wedding.  Excellent choice!"  A cheerful baker clears away your cake.

Side Note - As long as you have not changed your design, you can ask the baker for a second sample after you eat your delicious one. It has only one bite, so do not panic! Just ask the baker for a sample again.

Speaking with the Baker

The baker at Crave Dining is only too eager to speak to you about your wedding cake.

You can simply take a cake out of the display case and give it right to the baker and call it a day. This is an easy option for you and you can consider this cake done.

However, should you wish, you can completely customize your cake in every way OR ask the baker to produce random selections for you.

ask baker about help
A cheerful baker says, "Sample our offerings and GIVE me the cake you would like at your wedding.  Alternately, as part of the deluxe wedding package, you can choose from a selection of options for me to bake your wedding cake.  ASK me about FLAVOR, FILLING, and FROSTING to choose your wedding cake flavors, and then ASK me about DECORATION, ICING, COLORS, and DESIGN to choose the decorations for your wedding cake.  ASK me about SAMPLE to preview your choices, and GIVE me the sample you prefer to order the cake for your wedding."

The baker adds, "If you need inspiration, you can ask me about a RANDOM design!"

Since there are just so very many ways to customize your wedding cake, we thought we would take each part step by step.

At any step in the customization process, you can ASK BAKER ABOUT CAKE and she will tell you what your choices have been and what the final result will appear as.
