Okay, so I’ve seen dozens and dozens of amazing color boards and pictures in the past few weeks that have inspired me to write a little something tonight. Why? Because they all have one thing in common. The color YELLOW!

Now I must say, I’ve always been more a of a red and gray kind of girl myself. Don’t believe me? Check out my wedding photos. But seeing all of the bright yellow colors popping out of photographs, and off of my computer screen, is nearly enough to make me change my mind. It’s entirely possible that yellow might be becoming one of my new favorite colors for 2010.

Here’s a few reasons why:

When was the last time you had a piece of wedding cake or birthday cake? Do you remember what it tasted like? Did it blow your mind? If you’re like me, you cannot wait for a reception dinner to wrap up or the candles to be blown out so you can have that small (or VERY LARGE) piece of cake sat right in front of you. It is by far my favorite part of any wedding or party!

A cake represents a lot about a person or a couple – what they like and their personal style. It can mean just as much for a wedding shower, baby shower or birthday party. So if you’re going to say something about yourself through cake, shouldn’t you find a bakery that speaks volumes!?! The Cakery is just that bakery for me here in St. Louis! Nestled in Dogtown (on Tamm Avenue), the Cakery has been exciting my taste buds for the past 5 years now. If you want a quick taste test, just stop by the Cupcakery in the Central West End for a sweet treat! They had me at “cupcake” and will have you too!
