Why Tom Cruise’s Coconut Cake is So Popular in Hollywood

Many jokingly say that the true mark of success in Hollywood isn’t winning an Oscar or having your picture on a billboard, but receiving a coconut cake from Tom Cruise. This cake is so popular that many recipients eagerly wait for it, and it has become a kind of celebration in Hollywood.

Not only that, but receiving this cake from Tom Cruise is considered a “symbol of prestige” in the industry.

Tom Cruise’s coconut cake is quite delicious. Every year, he sends these cakes to his friends, colleagues, and family members, particularly around Christmas. The cake is made by Dwayne’s Bakery, located in Woodland Hills, California.

Many celebrities feel honored to receive this cake. Some even feel disappointed if they don’t get it. The list of recipients is quite long. For example, Kirsten Dunst has been receiving the cake since working with Tom Cruise on Interview with the Vampire in 1994. She mentioned on The Graham Norton Show in 2016, “Tom sends me a cake every Christmas. We call it our ‘Cruise cake’ at home. It’s the best coconut cake in the world. There’s a special kind of honor in receiving it.”

Dunst’s husband, Jesse Plemons, also worked with Cruise on American Made, and has been getting the cake ever since. In a recent interview, Dunst humorously shared, “Now we get two cakes. Our cakes never run out.”

Glen Powell, star of Top Gun: Maverick, throws a party at his home to celebrate receiving the cake. Angela Bassett and Raymond Lee both agreed in a discussion that Tom Cruise’s cake was the most delicious one they had ever had.

In 2023, Hayley Atwell shared a picture of the beautifully wrapped cake sent by Tom Cruise on her Instagram story. The note with the cake read, “Best wishes for the holiday season, Tom Cruise.”

Tom Cruise and Rosie O’Donnell have been friends for over 25 years. Every year, Cruise sends his friend the special cake, and receiving it makes Rosie feel like the holiday season has officially arrived. She considers the cake one of the best parts of the season.

In addition, J. Ellis, Cruise’s co-star in Top Gun: Maverick, took a coconut cake to Mexico last year. It was a gift from Tom. Another star, Graham Norton, proudly claimed, “I didn’t know we were on the ‘Tom Cruise cake’ list. It’s an honor.”

Brooke Shields is another celebrity who has received the cake. She shared, “I’ve been on the cake list for 10 years. Every year I’d get the coconut cake. I want to be on that list again.”

Tom Cruise’s coconut cake has truly become a celebrated part of Hollywood culture, with many stars eagerly waiting for their slice of this iconic treat.
