So I have always thought that eating your wedding cake on your 1st anniversary is the strangest tradition. I actually never thought I would follow that tradition. However, the night of our reception, we had a huge cake and a lot left over. So my sister in law, Margene, took the top layer and froze it for us. She wrapped it in tinfoil and then she has one of those things that sucks all the air out of it to seal it with no air in it. (I am sure there is an official word for it, but I have no idea what it is.)
Forward one year (and a month, since we were out of town and then kept forgetting to go get it from her.) We thawed out the cake and ate it. Now, I don't know what all of your wedding cakes tasted like on your wedding day, but ours was amazing. It was soo good and fresh and tasty. But knowing it was one year later, I was completely prepared to taste dry, freezer burned cake. I was completely 100% wrong! Our one year old cake tasted exactly as it did on our wedding day. I kid you not, it was amazing!! It was so fresh in fact that we ate it for 3 days and yes even on the third day it was still tasting fresh. Shane and I ate almost the entire top layer of our cake...ok that sounds gross, it wasn't really that big.
So I just had to post about it because I am still amazed at how fresh the cake was after one year. I told Shane that I have had wedding cake at receptions that didn't taste this fresh. Seriously...still amazed!

Cake is totally one of my most favorite things on Earth! Sounds so yummy right now, 8 o'clock in the morning! By the way, your cake was gorgeous! Stunning.
I am sure that your cake tasted so good mostly because Margene sealed it. Ours was not fresh. It wasn't the grossest thing I have ever tasted, but it wasn't fresh.
I'm glad your cake was so tasty! Ours wasn't sealed, but Tyson's mom did a fantastic job wrapping it. Ours was fresh and fabulous, too. Your cake was so beautiful!
Ours was pretty tasty too! Who knew!
