The groom's cake is a smaller cake that is served at the wedding
reception. Young women (unmarried) will want to take a piece of the groom's cake home to place under their pillows and the old
wife's tale says "they will marry
whomever they dream of that night."
We recommend that the groom's mother bake the groom's cake herself. It can be anything from
fruitcake to chocolate...whatever the groom loves. You may want to encourage the bride to wrap small slices of the groom's cake in tin foil, wrapped around with net and tied with a nice bow as a favor to be passed out at the reception. Include a little note with each piece of cake explaining the "old
wife's tale."
