Grooms Cake

It's just something cute if you want to surprise your hubby with something.
You can use at reception or RD whatever you prefer.

Q: Is It Essential To Have A Groom's Cake?

A: A groom’s cake has its roots in the South, and although it used to be viewed as an added and unnecessary expense, this once-neglected cake has been making a huge comeback. Intended to be a gift from the bride to the groom, the groom's cake is usually dark (often chocolate or liquor-soaked) and designed with a nod towards what's traditionally considered 'masculine' (i.e., no rosettes in sight).
Although you do not need a groom’s cake, you just may want one. The groom's cake can serve many purposes, from dessert at the rehearsal dinner, to an alternative choice to the bride's cake at the wedding. It's customary for the groom's cake to be displayed next to the bride's cake, and later cut and put into boxes for guests to take home. And believe it or not, legend has it that single women are supposed to sleep with a slice under their pillow the same night they receive it -- and if they do, they will dream of their future husband. Boxed slices of groom's cake can also serve as your wedding favors. If you go this route, take advantage of the opportunity to get creative with the packaging -- an additional way to reflect your bridal style.

A current creative trend in groom's cakes is to have the cake reflect the groom's interests and hobbies. For instance, a recent groom's cake we loved was in the shape of a skyscraper - the perfect choice for the groom, who was in New York real estate. Other options are a cake in the shape of a set of golf clubs or a football confection with the mascot of his favorite team. Whatever you decide, gifting your new hubby with his own cake is something you should do because you want to -- not because you feel obligated.

i like this idea a lot. I am going to look into it and see how much it costs. FH is a huge met fan and he saw pics of some girl that got a Mr. Met head cake and had it at their reception... he was like 'THAT IS SO COOL!' lol so i figure he would like that.

You can present it at the RD or the reception alongside your wedding cake, whatever you prefer
