Last month, the Pittsburgh Penguins won their fourth NHL championship, taking home the famous Stanley Cup. Since then, members of the team—most recently, Phil Kessel, Marc-Andre Fleury and Ben Lovejoy—have been parading the Cup’s whereabouts on the @keeperofthecup Twitter page. It’s been used as an ice cream cup and golfing partner, but our favorite Cup moments involved edible replicas—or Cup cakes if you will. A few players on the winning team, like Chris Kunitz and Kris Letang, both had cakes made in its honor. Is this the beginning of a very delicious tradition?
If your partner is a serious hockey fan, we’re loving this idea for a jaw-dropping groom’s cake.
