I've had to pass the crown of Best Wedding Cake Ever to Dave and Cynthia.
2 different layers: one layer of chocolate cake with a coffee liqueur creme for a tiramisu-like experience, one layer of the BEST CARROT CAKE EVER with bits of pear, spices, and some kind of liqueur that I couldn't recognize but amplified the whole taste. And, of course, no fondant. Another amazing thing about this cake is that it was somehow rich, but not heavy. I easily went back for seconds (and would've gone for more, but the carrot layer was smaller and they ran out). Those, who know me, know that I generally hate cake.
One commonality between this cake and Rourke and Jen's cake(the previous title holder) is that there will be no future cakes from the same source. Yes, sad news for all of those with future wedding cake needs.
Funny how the best cakes ever will never return; their secrets, forever lost.

The girlfriend (forgot her name) of that guy (AJ) who sat at our table with us, said she knew how they made the cake rich w/o being light.
She said, before the cake finishes setting (or after?), they literally make holes in the cake and use the holes to poor in a light syrup. This way the syrup isn't in the mixture and doesn't make the cake 'heavy'.
She seemed to know alot about it, but was only talking to her bf, so I didn't catch most of it...
Either way, that was definitely the best frosting on a cake i've ever had. It looked really heavy but tasted ever so light and yummy. I'm sad I didn't get a taste of the carrot cake. =(
whoops, i meant "w/o being heavy." in the first para.
