the aphrodisiac power of
wedding cake
The
history of wedding cakes goes back almost as far as
that of weddings. Snow white frosting symbolizes virginity
but also evokes thoughts of crisp, white, wedding bed
sheets.
In ancient Greece, the wedding cake tradition was for
brides to bake cake for their new husbands. In the era
of Louis XIV, the French served alcohol-soaked cakes
to the wedding couple as a send off with a kick. |
