Glen Powell, who played the role of Hangman in the movie “Top Gun Maverick,” talked about the “Christmas present” from Tom Cruise, who co-starred in the movie, on “The Jennifer Hudson Show.

Glen’s Christmas present was a white chocolate coconut band cake from Doan’s Bakery in Woodland, California. Tom orders a large quantity of cakes from this bakery every holiday season and gives them to celebrities he has befriended and those who have helped him, and he has revealed that not only Glenn but also Monica Barbaro, who plays Phoenix, received a cake from Tom.

Glen said, “It’s already well known that when you work with Tom Cruise or are in a Tom Cruise movie, you get a ‘Tom Cruise cake’. Every year at Christmas time, he gives a cake to everyone. I don’t know how many. I don’t know how many he has given. I don’t know how many he has given, but it is the best cake I have ever eaten in my life. It’s like a coconut bundt cake.”

According to Glen, who is totally elated to be on Tom’s gift list, his friends who have tasted the cake are now completely addicted to it. Did you get it yet? (laugh). So now we have a party at home to eat Tom’s cake. It’s a cruise cake party. I invite my friends over and have them take a bite or two of the cake.

However, the number of cakes is limited to one, so he limits the number of people he invites and the amount of cake they can eat. （Only a limited number of people can eat it. No second helpings, either,” he said with a laugh.
