The tradition of the Groom's cake began in the South and was originally a symbol of the couple's sweet life together.
Traditional Cakes
For years the Groom's cake served as a type of favor for guests. It was a dark fruitcake which was baked in advance, cut up into small squares, and put into little monogrammed boxes. The boxes were given to the guests to take home. The time, labor and cost in doing this ultimately led to the virtual end to this tradition.
Modern Cake Designs
Today the Groom's cake really serves as a way for the Groom to have his own special part of the reception or rehearsal dinner. The cake often hints at some aspect of the Groom's personality. If the Groom loves to play golf, the cake may resemble a golf bag. If the Groom is a race car driver, the cake may resemble a race car. If the Groom loves Michael Jordan, the cake may resemble his basketball jersey...I think you get the picture.
In general, the Groom's cake is often a chocolate cake but may be the groom's favorite flavor. If he just loves carrot cake, make it carrot cake. If he just loves cupcakes more than regular cake, make it cupcakes! There is no limit to the design and there is nothing really traditional about it.
Who Orders?
The Bride usually orders the Groom's cake from the same baker who is providing the wedding cake. Unless the Groom was in on the original decision, the Bride usually keeps the design of the cake a secret until the wedding day.
Some Groom's prefer to order the Groom's cake themselves, keeping it a secret from the Bride. Either way, the Groom's cake can be a fun part of the wedding celebration.
When Do We Display the Cake?
Some couples choose to serve the Groom's cake at the Rehearsal Dinner as a dessert because it is often a "less serious" cake than the wedding cake. Other couples choose to display both the wedding cake and the Groom's cake at the wedding, allowing the Groom's cake to serve as another dessert option. Either way, both are acceptable.

I am making a meat cake for my groom. Basically a meat loaf cut into cake form and then "iced" with mashed potato. With a ketchup glaze for the filling. It's what he wants. And it will make all his friends jealous.

Lei Lydle, Editor from Atlanta, Georgia says... |

Unfortunately I can't answer your question because the Groom's cake can be purchased by the bride as a surprise for the Groom in which case it should be paid for by bride or bride's family. Or it could be purchased by the Groom as his personal "stamp" on the wedding in which case it should be paid for by the groom or groom's family.
If neither apply, the Groom's Cake is traditionally a part of the Wedding Reception which is typically hosted by the Bride's family. If that is the case here, then it should be paid for by the hosts of the reception unless otherwise discussed by you prior to her making the order.
If the Groom's Cake is making its appearance at the Rehearsal Dinner rather than the Reception (which it sometimes does) then the Groom's parents traditionally host the Rehearsal Dinner and therefore they would pay for it if neither of my previous scenarios apply. I hope this helps! Good luck! ~ Lei

For my son's wedding the bride chose everything about the grooms cake, then handed me the bill. I feel that this was very improper. If she chose everything about it, I feel that she should have payed for it. Who is right?

I'm a northern bride stealing a southern tradition. My groom's family is from South Carolina and when I heard of this tradition I was jumping out of my seat ready to design a groomscake for my fiance, Jimmy. For his cake I actually had our bakery attach fishing line, a fishing hook, and pictures of ourselves to personalize the fishing themed cake! I can't wait to see how it's going to turn out!

To the electrician request- my finace used to be one and says that a lightning bolt would be perfect, its a big symbol they use a lot. Also would be be more attractive than a breaker box or a tool of some sort, although he says linesman's pliers would be ok. He also said to check out a service truck, the graphics are ususally good on those. Good luck!

I am making a grooms cake for a horse caretaker this weekend and what i am going to do is make a Bailys Irish Cream cheescake and cover it with fondant (still debating this part)....but for the top decoration I bought some of those collectable horse figurines of a horse reared and ready to attack a cougar (cat) and around this I am going to place some live fern and fake rocks. Since this is for a friend I thought the horse figurines would also be something nice to keep as a keepsake. You can usually find these in Walmart toy department for around $10-20.....depending on how elborate you go. Hope this helps!

For the hot air balloon cake- the cake itself can be square with the basketweave technique around the sides. use a real balloon filled with helium for the hot air balloon and attach with twine, ribbon or whatever you choose.
For the computer cake- In one of the Wilton yearbooks they have instructions for a 3-d computer cake. I forget the year. |

My fiancee loves to hunt, so I am looking for some type of hunting style grooms cake. He would prefer a white tail deer on it, and we both agree that we would like it 3D somehow. We have thought maybe a plastic deer figure on top?? Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? We don't want it to look like a Wal-Mart birthday cake...something classy, but with his favorite hobby on it. Thanks!! E-mail to haileyjett@yahoo.com
