Different...............seems to be very popular in Scotland! We had a request for a wedding cake made from cheese, I mean real cheese, not cheescake as in the dessert! Here is a picture, see what you think, we decorated it with fruits, it looked really colourful. Thank goodness it was inside in the airconditioning, or the smell would not have been too good!
