Hi Everyone,

Me and the H2b have only just decided on a cake for the big day. As he wants to try and help out as much as he can.

Now we are very stuck on filings for the cake. Im having four tiers and each filing will be different.

these are the filings we have to choose from,

Chocolate sponge with an after eight filing
Vanilla sponge with a strawberry filing
Chocolate sponge with a white chocolate filing
Vanila sponge with an orangecream filing
Chocolate sponge with a dairy milk filing
Vanilla sponge with a vanilla and jame filing

Have to choose 4 and we havent a clue

HELP please xx

Pic of cake is attached although im having red ribbon!

Your cake looks lovely. I don't like cake, so not really ideal to help out with suggestions. I like the idea of an after eight filling though - sounds unusual.

Im not a big lover of cakes either, but i do like the odd bit every now and again.

The after eight filing is nice but a bit sickly. im just so undecided about them! :wacko:

I think you should have two chocolate sponges and two vanilla sponges, so with that in mind my favourites from that list are:

Chocolate sponge with an after eight filling
Chocolate sponge with a white chocolate filling
Vanila sponge with an orangecream filling
Vanilla sponge with a vanilla and jam filling

Thinking about this has made me really hungry for cake now!! :lol:

Good choice. Thanks, and then that way people have a choice of what they want.

Think my best filing has to be after eight.

Sweeties rather than cakes for me :)

Oh heck why do I end up hungry every time I visit this site? I think the two choc and two vanilla sponges sounds good. I love the orange filling and after eight ones for adventurous people and traditional jam / cream options for the other two. YUM. Cake and sweets, two of my fave things in life.

Ohh yes good idea to have two chocolate and two vanilla. The orange filling sounds yummy, although I would want it with the chocolate cake as I love chocolate and orange together!

Website of fabulous cake-ness coming soon!
