While I don't know why anyone would volunteer to read a 12 pg research paper just for fun, Piece of Cake: The Revolution of American Wedding Confection, is now available if you wish to read it.
Please note that my paper isn't perfect; I'm just an undergrad and I don't care too much. Also, I apologize for its dry nature. If I'd been able to include all of my fun research, this would have been WAY more interesting. Apparently scholarly writing only includes authoritative-mumbo-jumbo and is limited to facts that impact your thesis. *eyeroll.* I think for AurelianBall I'll include an addendum with random tidbits. Stuff like this:
DID YOU KNOW:
Queen Victoria's wedding cake was 10 ft wide, and 300 lbs, but
Queen Elizabeth II's wedding cake was 9 ft high, and 500 lbs?
...the best part is that I know why Victoria's was tall and Elizabeth's was wide! Ahem.Exercising restraint. Must stop gushing.

And hey Mom-- does the dress the Bride is wearing look a tad... familiar in style? Perhaps if it were a coral pink? :)
That was my first thought! Great piece of research Rachel. Pat yourself on the back!
