A slice of the Groom’s life.

Rick's football groom's cakeNowadays, the groom’s cake is often decked out to resemble the groom’s interests. They are made in the shape of footballs, sports cars, or anything he loves. Should it be served at the wedding, it’s usually placed on a separate table from the main cake, and sliced by one of the caterers. There’s no custom of the new couple feeding it to each other.

Groom’s cakes are not tiered. A more recent trend is to serve it at the rehearsal dinner, thus dividing the sweets more evenly. This is entirely up to you.

This groom does.  He is a chocolate fan too.  I made this cake completely of chocolate.  And it is not covered with fondant. 

This cake is covered  with my famous frosting, which only contains 5 ingredients: butter, sugar, whipping cream, egg whites and vanilla.

Why would I want a Groom’s Cake?

A groom’s cake is traditionally a smaller cake served during the wedding that is given out to all the single women at the reception.  So the saying goes, if the lady takes the piece of cake home and places it under the pillow when she goes to bed that night she will dream of her future husband.  Naturally this is an old wives’ tale that is simply meant for fun.

In the past the groom’s mother would bake the cake, but today that is no longer the case.  While still smaller than the wedding cake the groom’s cake has become just as elaborate and spectacular as the wedding cake itself.  Generally made to please the groom’s taste in flavor and  the groom’s cake is usually a sculptured cake which represents something dear to the groom. I have made several great designs including a frog, fox, and guitar. The design and style of the groom’s cake can also be very conservative and classy.

The choice to serve a groom’s cake depends entirely on the couple.  It is not compulsory and if the cost of the wedding is already spiraling then opting to forego the extra dessert will certainly be overlooked.  One option that can save cost while including the groom’s cake is to have it packed up and given out as wedding favors at the end of the evening.  No matter what you decide, remember that with the groom’s cake you can really have some fun and make it whatever you want it to be.
