This is mimicking the cake. The only difference will be a large icing bow on top of the cake. The cake layers will all be different flavors as well. I believe the bottom layer will be chocolate chip! Gail at http://clayandlimestone.blogspot.com/ your cake question has been answered.
Know what's special about these hat boxes? They were my Mom's. She decoupaged them in cute flower paper and had them sitting in the corner of one of her rooms. When she passed my Dad gave them to me.

Very unique idea and how special that they wee your Mom's!! Hope she gets them packed full!
Hi Darla Dear, I LOVE them! They look so professionally done. Your talent both baffles and inspires me. And the sentimental value is the "icing on the cake" so to speak. :)
Oh My ---how special... I didn't think much about the little boxes until you talked about them being your Mom's... Now --I LOVE them and am glad you are using them in the wedding... A nice part of your Mom will be present. How special is that!!!
Hugs,

Well look at you miss crafty!
I love that the boxes came from your mom and that they will be used at your precious daughters wedding.
That is so special~♥
That makes them even more special because they belonged to your mom. That is a great idea for the cards. :)
What a beautiful way to include your Mom in the wedding Darla! They are lovely!
Very nice idea. What a beautiful wedding it will be. Special memories in those old boxes for sure. Hope they runneth over.
This is a cute (and whimsical) use of the hat boxes.
What a clever idea Darla. That is going to be one gorgeous and delicious cake. :)
Love that card box idea! Wish I could've read your blog during my son's wedding prep. You have some great ideas!
How clever!
These boxes are special, and you are a talented girl!
You sure are making headway with the wedding tasks, Darla! What a cute idea to make a card drop with these sentimental boxes that once belonged to your daughters grandma! I love that. They are really pretty...I sure hope we get to see that wedding cake afterwards too...what a really sweet wedding!!!
Hi Darla,
Oh, I can totally relate at how good it feels to complete a task on the seemingly neverending wedding checklist. I can imagine how beautiful the wedding cake will look :-)
Ingenious! That is incredibly special that these boxes were your mom's. What talent she had, and your creation is a real tribute to her too.
Darla you are one busy woman! I love the whimsy idea for a wedding. The cake will look incredible! And the gifts for the guests are amazing. You are going to need a long vacation after this wedding is over. I think you should become a "wedding planner" now that you have it down. Such great unique ideas!

What a clever idea. It is one that could have been very useful at the last wedding we went to. This will be a beautiful wedding. How lucky to be able to have it in the garden.
Nice! My second daughter's wedding cake looked like hat boxes, subtle shimmering stripes and such, it was beautiful and incredibly tasty. What fun doing a daughter's wedding, isn't it!?!
Very creative idea to mimic the cake and what a great use for sentimental treasures from your Mom. The cake sounds like it will be as delicious and it will be beautiful.
you have done such a good job on every thing...I'm sure your daughter is so happy....your a great MOM....
Cute idea!!
I think your Mom is smiling now!!
That is the cutest idea ever! I love the fact that they were your Mom's. How do you think of all these things?
