It all stems from a movie: Steel Magnolias. In the movie a red velvet cake was made as a groom's cake in the likeness of an armadillo. For more information, you can click here: http://weddings.lovetoknow.com/wiki/Armadillo_Grooms_Cake

Happy reading.

Yeah, ever since that lady in the movie hacked off the back end of the armadillo and gave it to the bride's father, it's a big deal. I get the fact that it's shocking to cut into a cake shaped like an animal and have it be red, but the armadillo thing doesn't make a whole lot of since (unless you are in a state where they are prevalent or something). Especially since that movie is not new!!! LOL.
