A groom cake allows the groom to have an item to express himself to the guests. It can reflect his favorite hobby or occupation. There are no hard rules of etiquette written on this tradition.
Servings of Cake
The groom cake can be presented and served in a variety of ways. Some brides and grooms use them as dessert for guests to enjoy after the rehearsal dinner. Some cakes are displayed next to the multi tiered wedding cake during the reception. These cakes can be cut and boxed for guests to take home as a wedding favor. As a momentum to the bride and groom, it can be preserved in the newlywed's freezer and shared together on their first anniversary. In fact, some wedding cakes' top tiers will be created just for the bride and groom to share for this purpose.
The Legend of the Groom Cake
Some legendary groom cake tales say that all the single ladies can sleep with the groom's cake under their pillows after the wedding. The cake will the give the mistress dreams of her future husband. Considering many grooms cakes are made with dark contrasting colors and flavors opposed to the traditional fluffy white wedding cakes, perhaps there is a bit of mystical powers. Some groom cakes are drenched in brandy or other liqueur.
