Our frequently asked questons

Amid the bride’s feminine wedding plans with her dress, flowers, invitations, and wedding cake, the groom’s cake provides a way for the groom to make a statement of his own personality. Whether served the evening before at the rehearsal dinner, allowing a way to break the ice, or sitting proudly next to the bride’s cake at the reception, it will bring the groom into the spotlight, even if only for a moment. The groom’s cake is most often a rich chocolate confection, or another favorite flavor of the groom’s, in some type of design representing his favorite interest such as a school symbol, car, airplane, or bike. Whether it is a bride surprising her groom or something they have chosen together, it is sure to bring a smile to their guests’ faces and leave a wonderful memory.
