WHY can't I get a Cinderella cake for my daughters birthday IN WDW???? We had reservations for 16 for dinner at Whispering Canyon Cafe. The dining agent said we could order a custom cake and here is the #. BUT come to find out custom means I can get her name put on it. GRRR...The only way to get a pretty cake w/ Cinderella on it is to be dining in a resort whose bakery does this. GF is one of them maybe the only one, I don't know. But I knew they did the specialty cakes. MOSTLY all I wanted was a darned chocolate cinderella cake topper (15$) Not only could they not get make a cake and transport it to WCC OR let me pick it up but I couldn't even get my hands on a stupid cake topper. I went out of my way to plan her birthday at WDW. I have 16 people meeting for dinner, some of them driving 2 hours just for dinner and I can't get a stupid Cinderella cake topper for my DD!!!! I said that if I had had this information that I would have made reservations at the GF instead but since her birthday is the 19th and we are a party of 16 I'm sure they can't accomodate me. BY this time I am talking to a manager at GF's dining service b/c I am ticked- and trying to be nice and pleading instead of just TICKED OFF. She says would you be interested in a reservation at the Cafe?? NO. She asked what restaurant I would like to eat at if she could get us in I said I would change to 1900 Park Fare if they could get us seated at a reasonable time and we could all sit together (they had told me at WCC that we weren't guaranteed table together b/c of our #) and VOILA a res. for 16 at 1900 PF @5:00 w/ 5 days notice. ANd we got a Cinderella AND a red Power Ranger cake toppers for the cake (it's my nephews b-day on the 23rd)
Now I'm kinda wondering if I didn' tcut off my nose to spite my face. My family would have really enjoyed WCC, it's fun. AND they did say we could bring in our own cake. There is a publix not far...but think about transporting a 1/2 sheet cake to the restaurant and then having room for it at the table(they won't store it in the kitchen) it just seemed like a hassle. SO now I've changed our reservations to a place not everyone will enjoy as much and paid an extra $30 (cake toppers) for a cake so that I could have a cinderella cake topper. It sounds silly now...but I was really mad and just wanted my way.
OH WELL, I can cancel our Akershush ressies since Little will be meeting Cinderella at dinner and we can go to Animal Kingdom b/c she has been telling everyone she is going there for her BD
I'm done.
