However, if you are having a destination wedding (like in Cabo), many countries may limit what you can and can\u2019t take back across the border. If you have to check off the box on your Customs form stating that you are carrying back food, this may increase your chances at time in the Customs line. Don\u2019t bring back food. Enjoy your top tier of your cake with your guests at the event, or save it for the day or two afterwards.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loscabosflowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1613840_359518864189909_1565896365_n.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"  wp-image-453 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loscabosflowers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1613840_359518864189909_1565896365_n-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"1613840_359518864189909_1565896365_n\" width=\"264\" height=\"389\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><b>#3 WHAT IS YOUR SPECIALTY?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Your cake baker\u2019s specialty will be that cake that she specializes in, that she is an expert at. It will be the cake that she likes the best and is very proud of. That may be reason enough to trust her and trust that this must be one awesome cake combination for it to be so highly regarded by her. Go for the specialty, at least on one tier!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><b>#4 HOW DO YOU PRESENT THE CAKE?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Does the cake include a cake stand? Is there a choice of cake stand? Can I see photos of that? What about with cupcakes? (Their presentation is especially important, as you don\u2019t want them to look like you are at an elementary school birthday party in your wedding photos.) How the cake is actually presented on the night of your wedding is almost as important as how it tastes.
