Is anyone doing a groom's cake? if so where are you placing it in comparison to the main wedding cake.

 

here's a pic of the cake I have in mind:

I plan on getting a groom's cake. I really want to get a microphone shaped cake (FI sings). I thought about putting the groom's cake next to the wedding cake but I want to surprise him with it. So I think I'm going to have some one bring it out after we cut the wedding cake. I read on a site that traditionally it gets displayed next to the brides cake.

I feel like a dork but what exactly is a "grooms" cake? I mean obviousy it's for your man, but is it like in honor of him or what? Sorry I should know the answer to this. LOL

I found an article about it:

Thanks sooo much! OMG, I have to do a Mario cake for my FI. (Inside joke, between us, but he'll LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!) That's perfect for our AHR. The football cake you posted is GREAT! I love it! Thanks for the post!

Your welcome. Until recently I didn't know what a groom's cake was either but once I found out I just had to get one. I can't wait to surprise him with a microphone shaped cake. My FI sings all the time so the microphone fits him perfectly. I know the Mario cake will be cute and I am sure he will be surprised. I also like the football cake. I thought about that too but I know he loves to sing more.

thanks ladies... i wanted to do something for him but he looks cookies more than cake so im not sure what to do... maybe a cookie cake or a stack of chocolate chip cookies in the shape of a football....

What a great idea. I will have to think of the perfect idea to think of for my FI.

Ok I saw that you said that your FI likes cookies and then you mentioned a cookie cake. Well I found some ideas for you:

 

You could get your FI's favorite team put on a cookie cake.

 

Or even a football shaped one.

 

 

Hope this helps!

thanks... that does help... but would a cookie cake look cheesy to a3 tier wedding cake?
