When planning a wedding the most important details are the perfect wedding location, reception venue, photography, party food, wedding cake and of course, the dress.  We all know that the groom truly cares about the wedding and marrying the love of his love, but he leaves the small details up to you.  So brides tend to forget about the one thing that is truly catered to the groom, his groom's cake.  He has dealt with your "bridezilla" moments, so why not think of him.  Even after the wedding, offering up a great birthday cake will truly melt his heart.  Here is a great idea for any guy:  sports themed cakes!

Showcasing his favorite sports team logo on a sheet cake is fine, but take it to the next level!  Your local bakery will do an amazing job creating 3D cakes, tiered cakes or a shaped cake.  There are endless possibilities when creating a groom's cake.  Your guy is a huge sports fan.  Whether it be baseball, football, basketball, hockey or soccer; they can create it.  He deserves an extraordinary sports themed cake for his birthday and especially his groom's cake.

The Football Guy

First off, when you think of football, you think of tailgating.  Have a great bakery create a birthday cake or groom cake shaped as a cooler!  How amazing!  A sports cake created to look exactly like a cooler is so unique.  Have his favorite sport's logo put on the outside of the cooler with his favorite beverage placed inside.  He will absolutely love it!

What about a stadium cake?  A replica of his favorite college or pro football stadium sounds absolutely unreal.  Replicating the football field, lights, scoreboard and fans will make this cake over-the-top!  A sports cake shaped like a football jersey, football or football helmet will make for a great cake too.  Your great guy will love any of these sports themed cakes for a groom's cake or birthday cake.  He'll truly appreciate the thought that came from you.

Fun Sports Themed Birthday Cakes

The Baseball Fanatic

Again, tons of great ideas for the baseball fanatic too.  Sports cakes created to look like baseballs, bats, jerseys, hats or the mascot will send him over the top.  If you really want to do the trick, create a replica of the baseball stadium!  Amazing bakers can create the actual baseball field with the bases and home plate.

Surrounding this sports themed cake with the bleachers, scoreboard, dugouts and perfecting the stadium details down to the very last.  Every brick, column, fan and color will be created with exquisite detail.  He will truly be amazed that you thought of this, whether it be for his birthday or groom's cake.

More Sports?

Of course, your guy may not be a huge fanatic of football and baseball so your local baker can cater to him too.  Golf, hunting and car racing might suit your guy better.  So have your baker create his a golf ball, golf club or even a replica of a golf course.  So neat!  With hunting, there are endless possibilities.  Create hunting guns, deers, antlers, ducks or even a hunting field.  Your outdoor guy will absolutely love that.  Again, there are endless possibilities when creating cakes.

You have the perfect location, delicious food and your dream cake; now give the groom something.  Guys aren't big on details and are not fans of having all the attention focused on them.  So cater to what they enjoy and wow them with a sports themed groom's cake or sports themed birthday cake that they'll never forget.

One look at the extreme grooms cakes by Crystal Wedding and you can see what sets them apart from other bakeries. The craftsmanship on their unique wedding cakes is mind blowing! Who would have ever thought to build LSU Stadium into a cake?? (Well they did! Several other Stadiums too.) The patience that the mother-daughter team put into their cake design is really remarkable.

Experience is definitely needed to create these masterpieces. Growing up in her mother Mary Boudreaux's bakery, its no wonder Crystal Williams joined the team. Together they have some 50 years experience under their belts. Knowing the importance of quality, they and their staff bake and cook in the finest of American, French and European traditions. Everything made by hand with the freshest ingredients.

Speaking of traditions, ever heard of a King Cake? They are a uniquely New Orleans Mardi Gras tradition perfected by the Lafayette, Louisiana bakery. It looks like a giant festive pastry that serves 20-25 people! All cakes have a small trinket inside and who ever finds it in their piece has the privilege of buying next years cake! How festive! (They also ship these anywhere!)

A Mardi Gras themed party is not complete without the King Cake, but if its a wedding coming up Crystal Wedding's is your go-to source in for all your wedding planning needs.

So if you are looking for an extra special wedding cake with an artistic flare Crystal Wedding is your place!

After hours of careful research, I have put together a list of possible grooms cake ideas for your next bachelors party or wedding reception. From the eyes of a male, the perfect grooms cake must capture the personality of the groom, as well as offer a bit of humor to the event in which it is presented. However, some cakes will send the wrong message to the groom no matter how creative the idea.

The first cake we must address is the Guinness Grooms Cake. This cake is alcohol-free and is unfortunately not available in a keg or on draft. Actually any cake adorned to appear like a cold brew is a humorous choice for a groom that enjoys his beer. I believe this cake could turn a drab, stiff wedding into an occasion any male would enjoy.

The Tools and Chocolate Grooms Wedding Cake embodies the hard working side of a man, not typically depicted on a cake. As the groom goes to cut this cake on his big day, a hard hat is not required, but would be perfect attire to complete the aura of such a masculine baked good. Brides, do not let your groom use the tools as they're most likely frosting.

However inappropriate this cake may be for super formal events, the Horse Poop Grooms Cake WILL make every male in the room laugh. What pulls this cake off, to me, and adds a sense of realism are the candy flies swarming the sweet chocolatey nuggets. Mmmm, can you imagine now which piece you'll choose?

To show her appreciation for finding such a great catch, the Bride should present this humorous grooms cake as a surprise to her new husband during their wedding reception. The cake offers a modern spin to the classic image of a caveman dragging his girlfriend by her hair back to the comfort of his cave. For all the recipients of this cake, consider getting used to the term "yes dear".

The last cake we'll address is the Sports Team Grooms Wedding Cake. Every man has his favorite sports team, and what better way is there to pay homage to such an iconic institution than at your very own wedding! A groom and all his best men will find no greater joy than to indulge themselves with a bite out of the logo of their favorite team.

The groom's wedding cake is possibly one of the most important aspects of a wedding. From giving the room humor, to paying respect, to sending the right message, your cake should focus on what is most important to the groom on his and his bride's big day.

Ask The Wedding Guide: I love the bride/groom razorback with veil/top hat cake topper. Can I buy just that cake topper by itself? Sharon from Knoxville Tn.

Razorback Grooms Cake

Reply:

Sharon,

This grooms cake from Fayetteville AR, is an awesome example of how cake toppers make the difference between a nice cake and an awesome cake.  I believe in this case, the topper is actually two cakes covered with frosting and fondant to create the razorbacks.  The top hat was created with fondant and the veil was a piece of tulle.  I'm sure a local Knoxville Tn bakery could recreate the razorbacks for you.   Other options would be to find a cake topper supplier in Knoxville that specializes in sport memorabila.

History of the Wedding Cake

The importance of wedding cakes goes back for centuries. Originally, wedding cakes represented fertility, prosperity, and also symbolized the couple’s new life together. Many even think that the tiered wedding cake was not born out of artistic creation, but actually out of necessity.

The tradition of the wedding cake can be found as far back as the Romans. According to legend, Continue reading "WEDDING CAKE IDEAS" »
