起源The Groom's Cake
...Its Origins and Modern Transformation
The origins of the Groom's Cake are somewhat unclear.Traditionally,the groom's cake is packaged into small,single-serving boxes for guests to take home.The roots of this custom may date back to early Rome when guests would scramble for fallen crumbs after the wedding cake had been broken over the bride's head.The cake and the crumbs were thought to bring good fortune to those who ate it.
Another theory dates back to the eighteenth century,when it was traditional to pass out small pieces of the wedding cake through a wedding ring whose owner was happily married.Victorian bridesmaids would practice this ritual on the eve of the wedding.They would wrap the pieces and,on the day of the wedding,would give them out to all the unmarried guests.These unmarried women would then place the piece of wedding cake under their pillow in order to dream about a future husband.This same custom also dates back to nineteenth century Southern tradition,when the same process was followed.
England serves as the origin of many wedding cake traditions.There,a fruitcake covered with very smooth fondant or marzipan icing,is still the custom.The rich,heavy cake is cut into very small pieces and offered to guests.Fruitcake was the traditional wedding cake in our country until the middle of the nineteenth century.Before the advent of the home freezer,the Groom's Cake,made of heavy fruit and liquor-soaked,held the attribute of a long shelf life.That is why it was the one that was kept and eaten at the first anniversary celebration.Some couples today still follow the tradition of saving part of their wedding cake or of the Groom's Cake to share on their first anniversary.The Industrial Age in America brought great wealth to many.It was the norm for newly-rich of polite society to make it a contest to see who could display wealth most ostentatiously.One of the ways by which they chose to compete was by serving a white cake made with the most refined and more expensive white flour and the addition of white sugar.These cakes were made with egg whites (the yolks were discarded),and white milk,which resulted in an all-white wedding cake that was covered with boiled white sugar and egg white icing!
