Patricia Moroz of Starlight Custom Cakes in Boothbay has been selected to make a wedding cake for a $100,000 wedding.

“I have made hundreds and hundreds (of wedding cakes),” Moroz said. “I really don’t know how many.”

Now one lucky couple will have one of Moroz’s much sought after wedding cakes at their wedding on Oct. 16.

Christina Quach of Rockland and Luke Paul of Farmington won a $100,000 wedding through a contest put out by Real Maine Weddings magazine and website.

According to the website, the publishers of Real Maine Weddings magazine choose a Maine community each year in which to host a $100,000 wedding for one couple. The 2015 host community is the Midcoast (Camden, Rockport and Rockland).

The wedding ceremony will take place in the Camden Amphitheater and Harbor Park. The Norumbega Inn will host a welcome party on Wednesday, Oct. 14. A rehearsal dinner will be at the Whitehall on Thursday.

The reception will be at the Samoset Resort in Rockport, with an after-party at Point Lookout Resort in Lincolnville.

Moroz and her confections are well known in the Rockport area, where she most recently moved to Boothbay from.

The $100,000 wedding prize also includes the wedding gown, bridesmaids' gowns, invitations, bridal jewelry, and photography.

And the cake.

With over 30 partners participating in the event, many of the donated items and venues have been (or will be) voted on by the public. The wedding gown, bridesmaid gown, bridal jewelry, invitations, wedding rings and rehearsal dinner menu are among them. And, of course, the cake.

On June 4, Moroz hosted a cake tasting for the couple at her home and studio in Boothbay.

Quach and Paul were there to choose the style of the cake, and the flavor, or flavors, they'd like. Also present were Christine Parker and Melanie Brooks from Real Maine Weddings, along with one of this year's partnering photographers, Mark McCall.

The couple can choose the flavors used in the cake, but the style will be voted on by the public.

Moroz baked four different flavored cakes for the tasting: spice, chocolate, lemon, and chocolate orange marble. She also whipped up a large batch of buttercream frosting for participants to spread at will.

“There are four flavors here today, but they don't have to choose one of them,” Moroz said. “They can look on our website and see the list of all the flavors I can make and choose one of them.”

Other flavors include French vanilla, strawberry, almond and carrot cake. There is a list of delectable frosting and filling flavors to choose from too.

Things got quiet when Moroz began serving slices of the different cakes. Topped with the buttercream frosting, it wasn't easy for the couple to choose just one. Lemon came first, and both liked it. Then came the orange and chocolate marble. They both liked that too. When the spice was served though, it looked like that might be the winning flavor, judging by both's reactions. They can also choose to have a combination of flavors.

Asked if they loved cake, the bride responded: “We just love eating.”

A discussion about cake styles and adornments ensued. After a lot of questions, Moroz felt comfortable enough to come up with three different cake designs that will be put up for a vote on the Real Maine Weddings website.

While there, the groom was sent outside while the bride described what she'd like for his groom cake. A specialty of Moroz's is building sculpted theme cakes, and this one will be specially designed for Paul. It will be a surprise for him.

All participating sponsors donate their services and wares.

“It is awesome!” Parker said.
