Retro sweets for weddings

Two food based tasks kept me happily occupied for the afternoon.

Firstly, reviewing the new edition of Wedding Cakes: A Design Source which claims to have over 250 different cakes featuring, all as tempting as each other.

And then, browsing various sweetie web sites to find the ultimate selection in retro wedding sweets for our Feature of the Week. Suprisingly Hope and Greenwood, the home of retro sweets and a personal Mecca whenever I am in London’s Covent Garden, failed to come up with a decent selection aimed specifically at weddings, leaving the wonderful “A Quarter Of” to take the top spot on our home page this week.
