    Hello

    I've seen these cakes that are made to look similar to a wedding cake, but are made out of cheese.

    Has anybody had one? They look stunning, I was thinking of having one for the evening reception as an alternative for those who don't like sweet things.
    Did your guests eat it, or did a lot of it get left? I was thinking maybe with some crackers and grapes and chutneys...however would it be too fiddley as part of a buffet? Xx

    I love those cheese 'cakes', they look great. I've never been to a wedding that had one though and were not having one, so I don't know how much of it would get eaten. Maybe it depends on how many guests you have? X

    is just to love and be loved in return

    We had one as we had a hog roast so did a cheese cake as an addition for the veggies - it went down a treat, we had a cheese cake to serve 80 and had approx 100 guests, there wasnt much left at all. Everyone loved it!
    Only disappointing thing was the venue cut it up rather than stacking it so I never got to see it all together :(

    I am trying to convince h2b that i need to get one of these. Have seen them on the internet and they look amazing.
    On the plus side if my guests dont eat it......More for me

    Yeah - they're a little traditional. I've been trying to convince them to allow fire dancers too.

    Yeah it serve it with nice breeds, crackers and pâtés. We are having a cheese Buffett in evening, very similar but not like a cake as a nice change to a boring kids party Buffett xxx

    Thats a good idea, might price that up, I bet it would be cheaper and then you can have a bigger selection too xx

    A friend of mine had a 4 tier one! (didn't have any other type of cake) I personally don't like cheese but it went down a treat, not many were disappointed x

    Mine was meant to be 4 tier if it were stacked! We got these little heart pastes (fruit and red wine flavoured) to put on top too, and chutneys, crackers and fruit to go with it!

    I've seen some prices online and they work out about £2 a head. If you go to a local cheese supplier (or ask caterers) then you may well be able to get it much cheaper, the catering people at my venue say that cheese for about 100 with crackers etc included would be about £100.
