The Wedding Cake

   Wedding cakes originated in ancient Rome, where a loaf of wheat bread was broken over the brides head to symbolize hope for a fertile and fulfilling life.  The guests ate the crumbs, believed to be good luck.  The custom found it's way to England in the Middle Ages.  Guests brought small cakes to a wedding; the cakes were put in a pile, where the bride and groom later stood over and kissed.  Apparently, someone came up with the idea of piling all the cakes together and frosting them, creating an early ancestor of the multi-tiered wedding cakes of today.
