Cheese Cake vs Sweet Cake

Having had many requests over the past few months for a real cheese wedding cake I finally caved and attempted to créate something that could match the beauty of the real wedding cakes we are used to at our weddings.  I was not convinced but by decorating it with traditional flowers instead of the usual fruit and displaying it on an elegant console table I was quite pleased with the results.  The wedding guests were all fooled into thinking it was a real cake and were amazed and delighted when then realised it was made from cheese.  Personally I would have been rather disappointed as I have a very sweet tooth. I am not convinced that a cheese cake could ever upstage the beauty and decadence of a sweet hand piped cake complete with sugar flowers but for those of you that dont have quite such a sweet tooth as me this is a good alternative and can be served to your guests as a midnight snack with chutneys, crackers and breads.
