Grooms Cake - need ideas

I'm thinking of surprising my FH with a grooms cake at the rehearsal dinner - even though he says not to - I think it'll be fun.

I'm torn as to what to do...

- He loves baklava, but we're not greek - is that wierd to do?
- He likes ice cream, and we have a joke about sundaes - so maybe a cake in the shape of a sundae?
- He loves peanut butter, so I was thinking a giant Reeses Peanut Butter Cup??
- He plays the trumpet, maybe work that in?

I'd like to keep it fun, stay away from sports, etc. - he's not a crazy sports fan anyway...has favorite teams, but not someone who watches every game in a season.

Any ideas?

Re: Grooms Cake - need ideas

Actually I was wondering about groom's cake too. I never even heard of that until recently. Can any bakery make one? I was thinking about getting a cake in the shape of a stanley cup because my FH is obsessed with the Rangers and his friend recently bought him a small token stanley cup as a joke and he got a kick out of it. Does anyone know of a specific place that makes stuff like that?

Try Audrey's in Sayville...that's the bakery I think I'm going with for our wedding cake...and have seen some awesome grooms cake pix on here from them (do a search for guinness and you'll see what I mean!)

He enjoys cooking...and then the other stuff I mentioned above. We're both in market research - so that doesn't really help.

Re: Grooms Cake - need ideas

OHHH! you just reminded me of an ongoing joke my FH and I have. He has been wanting a Harley for a while and instead of a Harley, he obviously made the better choice and bought me an engagment ring. When we got engaged, he told everyone I was wearing his Harley on my finger. (I told him that he may be able to sit on it but it won't go anywhere ) Soooo...maybe a cake in the shape of a Harley would be perfect. Thanks for the idea!!

That sounds amazing! (maybe becasue the diet is getting to me). Can a baker actually make it look like a giant peanut butter cup?
