with simple icing and a border, minimal decoration if applicable.   Fillings may be added for an additional charge.  They are meant to be used for additional servings when a smaller display cake is preferred but additional servings are needed.  These cakes are delivered to the kitchen of your reception site and  served as needed.  When cut and plated, they look like the main cake.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>When choosing to use a kitchen cake(s), please keep the number of guests in mind.
