Blog Tour (Ten List & Giveaway): For What It's Worth by Karey White



Twenty-four year-old, Abby Benson has dreams of owning her own wedding cake shop. An inheritance from her aunt gives her the ability to make those dreams come true. She hires Dane, a handsome contractor, to help her get the bakery up and running and soon they’re moving toward their own happy ending.

Unsure what to charge for her cakes, Abby has a crazy idea to let the customer decide what they think their cake is worth. This plan has its ups and downs, but the novelty of the idea makes her a local celebrity. When she is interviewed on television about the unusual idea, business booms and Abby has cake adventures she never dreamed possible. But as her fame grows, Abby is swept up in a whirlwind that threatens everything she values. With the challenges that face her, will she be able to determine what is worth the most?



Ten Favorite Wedding Cakes
by Karey White

1. I love the lacework on this cake. I also love the tall tiers mixed with the shorter ones.


2. I like the alternating tiers. The design on the blue cakes is one of my favorites.


3. This reminds me of peonies and anything that reminds me of peonies is good.


4. The white on white mixed with the perfection of this pattern is so pretty.


5. Love the three-dimensional flowers on this cake. There are so many things that can be done with white on white.


6. This cake is stunning in it's simplicity. Because of the clean lines and the minimal flowers, this is actually one of the most difficult cakes.


7. These black-edged flowers are gorgeous and I like the mix of the more classical damask ribbon with the almost art-deco flowers.


8. Small and silver--just like my favorite jewelry.


9. I love this water-colory abstractly painted cake with the textured details and the simple white flowers. And tall square layers are so unexpected.


10. I once saw a tablecloth with this exact pattern. I love these colors. The crispness of the edges and no beading or ribbon at the borders means this was made by a master.

  1. It seems like a lovely book! Thank you for the chance to win a copy.
    And these cakes are simply beautiful! I would love to have a similar one when I get married. But then I don't think I would be able to ruin it. :)
