What is a Groom's Cakes

Have you ever wondered what EXACTLY is a Groom's Cake?

I've had alot of Brides ask me that very question, so I thought I'd briefly explain what it is and how it originated.

Groom's Cakes are part fun, part tradition, and something chosen to express the groom's personality or hobby, and therefore, you have a huge allowance to be as creative as you want!

Groom's cakes are a unique, smaller cake that is definitely not the traditional, beautiful white wedding cake with a plastic bride and groom on top.

Believe it or not, Groom's cakes were originally made of fruit cake, and born of tradition from somewhere in the (U.S.) South.

According to legend & superstition, if a single woman took home a slice of the groom's cake and slept with it under her pillow that night, she would dream of the man that she will marry and she'd know by morning who she would be spending the rest of her life with.

For some reasons, Weddings always seem to be about the bride. But what about the groom? It's his big day,too! Groom's cakes are a great way for a new wife to give attention to her man and show off his fun side!

Regardless of whether or not the superstition holds any truth, the tradition is coming back into style...and nowadays, it's all in the name of fun, and there are so many designs and themes to choose from!

These "expressive" cakes can be served at the rehearsal dinner or at the wedding reception, right along side the tiered wedding cake, and can be the favorite flavor of the grooms.

Everyone's wedding is unique to each individual couple, so make yours YOUR OWN, and follow your heart for your special day!
