    I really like Hilary Duff's wedding cake and wanted to see what everyone else thought of it. Does it look too informal? I think I found my wedding cake!!! Is it bad to copy a celebrity's wedding cake?

    I love it!! I don't like the taste of fondant icing, so this type of cake would save me the trouble of peeling it off. :) Go for it!!

    I really like it!  I'm not a huge "icing" fan so I'd be perfect for me!

    It does have a very classic 50's, homemade feel... :) Just like mom would have made! I think it's a nice option for brides who aren't frosting/fondant lovers!

    If you like it, then go for it!  Personally, I really really REALLY like icing (not fondant) so I'd be missing out on my icing, but that's just me.

    i hate too much icing or fondant on cake, i usually scrape it off...so this looks perfect! i love the look although i can see how some might not be into it.

    As a person who wishes she could have a frosting only cake I would never want this! To me it looks like they forgot the frosting or were trying to save money

    I don't think it's weird at all! Most of your guests won't even know what Hilary Duff's wedding cake looked like. I'm with the pro-icing crowd for my personal tastes, but that's a gorgeous cake!

    Its not bad to copy a celebrity's wedding cake at all, besides I seriously doubt anyone at your wedding will even notice that this was a "celebrity inspired" cake. I found a picture of a cake online from a famous cake shop and had it replicated. It tured out perfectly, so go for it.

    if you like it, do it!!!

    personally?  ick.  no icing?  then it's not a cake!!! LOL!  now, keep in mind, I've got a sweet tooth and I AM a kid in a candy store. :D  I drool over candy in the candy aisles of stores, too... and MUST have chocolate at LEAST once a day! 

    I'm picky about icing though: no foundant (ick), no whipped (ick), and CREAMED ALL THE WAY!!! lol.  probably because I grew up eating icing from the tubes you can buy at the store, (my uncle started it when I was a toddler... and he died when I was 3 so :P)

    Looks-wise I think it's pretty cool!! But i'm with Ryna about the frosting. This cake doesn't make me want to dive in face first like a cream frosted one...maybe that's a good thing. Laughing

    I love it!  I am not big on icing though.  It does have an informal feel, though, so as long as you feel comfortable with that I think its great.  And as far as celebrity cakes, there might be a few people there who notice but I seriously doubt most of your guests would even know where your inspiration came from.  Go for it!
