Here Comes the Groom:

Bringing Back the groom's cake tradition In the South, the groom's cake is a longstanding tradition. Historically, each young single woman who attended the wedding would get to take home a piece of this delicious cake. It was thought that if she placed the slice of cake under her pillow, she would soon find a husband.

Today, the old tradition of the Groom's Cake is making a comeback, with spectacular results. Decorated to reflect the groom's interests, hobbies, or career, the groom's cake can be served at the rehearsal dinner, at a separate event, or even alongside the wedding cake at the main event.

Following are some fantastic ideas for choosing a themed groom's cake.

1. Sports:

the groom might enjoy a cake decorating in the colors of his favorite sports team, or to resemble a soccer ball, football, or baseball. A fun and unique idea is to take a simple rectangular sheet cake, and to decorate it to resemble a soccer field or basketball court, complete with miniature goals or hoops (check your local toy store) and players (plastic figurines).

2. Formal dress cake:

another fun idea is to decorate a sheet cake with fondant or icing so that it looks like the front of a suit or tuxedo. Don't forget to add an icing bowtie or tie, as well as an edible boutonnières.

3. Games and hobbies:

find out what passions the groom has, and try to replicate them in cake! A chessboard, a fish grooms cake , a poker table, or even a golf course can be made using cake and icing.

4. Traditional grooms cakes:

if you're not up for the challenge of creating a themed cake decorating, a delicious and attractive groom's cake can possess a more traditional style. Similar to a small-scale wedding cake, a traditional groom's cake can have multiple layers and a cake topper, but try to use more "masculine" colors and patterns, such as brown, buff, or burgundy, and checkerboard or geometric patterns.

A "mad hatter" style cake is a unique and crazy grooms cakes . However you slice it, having grooms cakes will delight bride, groom, and attendees alike. It's also a great way to showcase the groom's interests, favorites, and skills. Remember, weddings are no longer just about the bride! It is high time that the groom's cake makes a comeback.
