Grooms Cakes

We have noticed a new found love for an old time tradition, the Groom’s Cake. A Groom’s Cake is a manlier version of the wedding cake that used to be highly popular in southern states. However, lately the cake is making a huge comeback nationwide.

The cake is intended to be a gift from the bride to the groom. It makes a great surprise for the groom on the wedding day. The cake can be served at the rehearsal dinner or as a second dessert option at the reception.

And groom’s cakes recently are reflecting the personality of the groom. Get creative! We have seen cakes representing everything from Wrigley Field to four legged best friends. Here are few we love from Tipsy Cake here in Chicago!
