Groom's cakes

Groom's cakes have long been a tradition within the Southern Community.  I remember, very well, the groom's cakes at the  weddings that I have attended in Alabama.  The traditional chocolate cake with fresh fruit on top was the added staple to the wedding cake.

However, these cakes have come along way!!!!  The Groom's Cake is now much more personal.  It is not just made from the traditional style but it also comes from something that the groom is most passionate about. For example, if a groom's favorite past time is baseball, then a cake can either be made as a baseball diamond or a cap from his favorite team.  If his job has a particular logo or whatever his profession maybe, a cake can be made to resemble that.

No longer is the Groom's Cake and after thought.  It is now equal to the main wedding cake....and why shouldn't it be?  It's not only the brides day, but it's the groom's day as well.  As always, I have examples of some Groom's cakes for you to take a look at.  Have fun!!!!
