Wedding Cake

Last week I delivered a wedding cake - yep I do that too in addition to truffles. Now - doing wedding cakes in the mountains is a bit different than anywhere else. Transportation sometimes can be very interesting. I have delivered many a wedding cake over dirt roads and up to remote areas. But the cake I delivered this past weekend - that well .... took the cake. There is a little town up here called Ophir about 10 minutes from Telluride only about 1,000 feet higher. The wedding was in a field that was even higher up and down a rugged, very narrow road - 4-wheel drive. No sheer cliffs but there was one stream to cross that I was a bit concerned about getting stuck in. But got there we did. It was a beautiful cake and a beautiful wedding.
