While there are a number of ways to distinguish if a celebrity is an A-lister, such as net worth or number of awards, one of the most coveted is who makes Tom Cruise’s holiday gift list.
Each year, Cruise sends a $126 coconut Bundt cake to a list of Hollywood celebrities who he has worked with.
Some stars have been on the list for decades, while others come and go.
For instance, Brooke Shields just revealed that this past holiday season was the first time she hadn’t received one of his famously delicious cakes in 10 years.
‘I was on the list for a while – I had a good 10-year run, and I got the coconut cake every year,’ the actress told People.
‘It was from them and Suri, so it was the three of them, and then soon it was no Suri and no Katie and just Tom,’ Shields said.
‘Then it went from just Tom for a while, but not every holiday. And then the cake stopped.’
She begged: ‘I want to get back on that cake list. It’s the best cake. Tom, I need to be back on the cake list.’

As per Goldbelly, the cake consists of ‘a ring of moist, luxurious coconut Bundt cake,’ ‘chunks of sweet white chocolate,’ a layer of cream cheese frosting, and toasted coconut flakes on top.
Karen and Eric Doan – the mother-and-son duo who own the bakery that makes the cake – were equally grateful for Cruise’s generous annual contributions.
‘This year has been a really rough ride,’ Eric told Yahoo back in December 2020.
‘In March and April, we wondered if we were even going to be able to stay open.’
‘Now, I’m spun like a top,’ he said of the holiday season, adding that Cruise’s order is ‘honestly is one of the things that kept us alive’ during the pandemic.
‘There were years they kept us in business,’ he added.

Tom to the rescue: ‘There were years they kept us in business,’ Eric Doan – co-owner of the bakery – said of Cruise’s cake orders
While it has been said that Cruise has never tried the cake himself, Karen can confirm that he has tried it at least once.
Diane Keaton introduced Cruise to the cake. Karen told ET that Keaton and Katie Holmes had a contest on who knew of the best cake.
They decided Cruise would be the judge and each sent him a cake. He picked Keaton’s, which was the coconut Bundt cake from Doan Bakery.
Even though the correspondent reminded her that Cruise famously ‘doesn’t have sugar,’ she has objected, stating: ‘He eats it. He eats it.’
Not all of Cruise’s cake recipients are Hollywood stars; he also sends cakes to producers, journalists, and executives.
Cruise allegedly arranged for 300 Christmas cakes to be shipped over from LA to the UK on his private jet as a gift for Mission: Impossible 7 crew members.
A source told The Sun: ‘Tom wanted to give the team on Mission: Impossible a treat for Christmas and decided that only cakes from his favorite bakery in LA would do.’
Famous or not, everyone seems to love his cakes, with Kirsten Dunst calling it ‘the best coconut cake I’ve ever had in my life,’ while James Corden has called it ‘unbelievable.’
Here are all the celebrities who have spoken out about having the honor of making Cruise’s cake list.
Kirsten Dunst was the first one to reveal Cruise’s annual cake gifting tradition
Kirsten Dunst met Cruise while filming the 1994 film Interview With a Vampire
Dunst was the first celebrity to speak out about the cakes – revealing Cruise’s annual tradition to the world.
In a 2015 interview with Stylist magazine, she said: ‘[Tom] sends me a cake every Christmas.
‘It’s so good – a coconut cake with white chocolate chips. It gets eaten within a day in my house.’
She also appeared on The Graham Norton Show in 2016 to dish on what she dubbed ‘the Cruise cake.’
‘He gives me this cake every Christmas,’ she explained.
‘We call it the Cruise cake. It’s just this coconut cake. It’s the best coconut cake I’ve ever had in my life.’
She first met Cruise during a screen test for their 1994 film Interview With A Vampire. In fact, she credits him for helping her land the role.
‘I auditioned many, many times for this role. This was also a huge deal for me. This was my breakout role,’ Dunst said during Netflix’s Playback.
‘And then I had another screen test after that with Tom Cruise, and I remember I was the tallest of all the young girls.
‘He had to pick each one of us up and carry us around just to see how we looked against Tom and who looked the most childlike.
‘I remember Tom whispering to me, “Tuck your legs under,” so I’d look as tiny as possible ’cause I was the tallest girl.’
‘So I knew he was kind of like rooting for me. We were both from New Jersey, and I think, he was like, “Let this Jersey girl have it,”‘ shared Dunst.
Tom Hanks has said that the coconut Bundt cake would be part of his last meal
Tom Hanks has revealed that Cruise’s coconut Bundt cake would be his last meal if he was on death row
Tom Hanks has raved about what a treat it is to receive Cruise’s annual Christmas gift.
In fact, Hanks claimed he would include it in his last meal if he was on death row.
While on the Mythical Kitchen series Last Meal, he claimed he’d end with the Bundt cake as dessert while also enjoying challah bread French toast, an In-N-Out Double-Double, Greek salad with avocado, calamari and the Taste Of History platter from El Cholo restaurant with a diet Dr. Pepper.
Hanks lit up when Cruise’s cake was brought out during the interview.
‘Look at it! Look at it. Isn’t it gorgeous?’ he exclaimed.
‘This cake is so great, you can really only have it once a year, which works out perfectly because I don’t order it. It arrives as a gift at Christmas.’
Later on, Hanks boasted that he was part of the annual list and explained how he shares the gift with his television company, Playtone.
‘This is a Christmas gift that we get every year from Tom Cruise,’ Hanks stated.
‘Now what’s interesting is the folks down at the office, the Playtone world headquarters, starting about Thanksgiving they start eyeing what mail has come in today.
‘”Are we getting what has essentially been called the Tom Cruise cake?” Because this is off-the-scale fantastic.
‘Everybody starts slicing thinner and thinner slices. It’s a mathematical proof that if you just keep cutting everything in half, you will never run out of Tom Cruise cake.’
Hanks and Cruise worked on America: A Tribute To Heroes together so they may have gotten closer, but it’s likely the Forrest Gump actor got on the list because of his sheer stardom.
Jon Hamm doesn’t know how he ended up on Cruise’s cake list before Top Gun: Maverick
Jon Hamm worked with Cruise on Top Gun: Maverick, but had been on the list long before that
Jon Hamm has been getting the renowned Cruise cakes for some time now.
Hamm spoke of the cake during a 2022 interview with THR calling it ‘the best cake I’ve ever had in my life’ while adding that he likes to ‘savor’ it for as long as possible.
When asked if he was on the list, he said, ‘Yes, I am. It’s a very anticipated cake, that’s for sure.
‘I don’t know when that particular piece of information got out, but I had been on it even before I worked on this film.’
He continued: ‘I don’t know how, but I remember getting it at one point and thinking, “This might be the best cake I’ve ever had in my life.” And it still delivers, even over the pandemic.
‘It does keep, I’ll say that. It keeps for a while, and like a lot of cakes, it’s good a little stale, too. So we savor it. We do not descend upon it.’
Hamm worked with Cruise on Top Gun: Maverick and has raved about the warm welcome he received from The Mummy star.
‘I’ll never forget my first day on set. There’s Tom Cruise, and he says, “Hey,” comes up, gives me a big hug and says, “It’s so good to have you here,”‘ Hamm shared during an interview with TODAY.
‘It’s a rare thing to be in the presence of a guy like that,’ he said of Cruise.
However, he had actually had met Cruise 10 years prior to Top Gun: Maverick at Jimmy Kimmel’s house.
Hamm said Kimmel was known for throwing all-day football viewing parties with big groups of people.
‘They’d have a keg and he’d make pizzas,’ he said on the Howard Stern Show.
‘It was LA so it’s sunny and games start at 10 in the morning.’
At first, when he had heard that Cruise was at the party, Hamm thought he was being pranked in classic Kimmel fashion.
However, he realized that ‘it’s not a Tom Cruise impersonator, it is Tom Cruise — with his mom.’
On top of it, Cruise turned out to be a big fan of Hamm’s work in Mad Men, which ran from 2007 to 2015.
‘He was like — in a very Tom Cruise way, very direct and intense — “I love that show. I love that show,”‘ he recalled.
‘”Thanks man.” Holy cow. That was a good day.’
Angela Bassett ate up her cake so quickly that her husband Courtney B. Vance didn’t get a slice
Angela Bassett starred in Mission Impossible: Fallout (2018) with Cruise
Angela Bassett loved Cruise’s cake so much that she didn’t leave enough for her husband, Courtney B. Vance, to get a slice.
She discussed the delicacy in Cruise’s presence when they appeared together on James Corden’s The Late Late Show.
Cruise elaborated on his decision not to eat the cake himself while sharing that he sent it to everyone on the set of Mission Impossible: Fallout.
‘I love sugar, but I can’t eat it when I’m training. So, I send it to everyone. I sent it to the stunt team,’ Cruise told his co-star and Corden in 2018.
Bassett starred in the film and therefore also got her hands on the Bundt cake. When Cruise shared that he sent one to her and her husband, she joked: ‘But only I ate it.’
She also discussed the TCCC – Tom Cruise Coconut Cake – on The Kelly Clarkson Show, sharing she ordered a deluxe version of her own.
‘It’s so good that at our 25th anniversary, we had the cake. We had a three-tiered TCCC cake and I ate the third tier by myself,’ Bassett admitted.
It seems Bassett enjoyed working with Cruise on Mission Impossible: Fallout almost as much as the cake.
‘As soon as you show up to set he says [your name] and he would light up,’ she shared on Kelly and Ryan.
‘He lights up for you and gives you the warmest embrace. He makes sure you’re taken care of with everything you need.’
James Corden and his staff on The Late Late Show receive cakes that Cruise himself has never tried
Cruise has appeared on Corden’s The Late Late Show and the two even sky dived together on an episode
Corden has spoken out about Cruise’s cakes a number of times. In fact, he was the one who revealed that the Top Gun actor had never tried the cake.
While appearing on Heart Breakfast, he shared that he is in fact on the list as well as his The Late Late Show coworkers.
‘It’s unbelievable, I would say almost everybody he meets who works on The Late Late Show gets one of these cakes,’ the TV host said.
‘It’s like our head writers, Ian and Lauren, you know different people that he’s met, he’s just so gracious and generous.’
However, he then claimed that Tom had never tried his iconic cake, adding: ‘But here’s the most amazing thing. He’s never tried it!’
To which a shocked Jason King – one of the show’s hosts – said: ‘No!’, but James insisted: ‘On my life!’
Corden also discussed receiving the cake with Cruise himself when he appeared on The Late Late Show with Bassett.
When Cruise had mentioned that he didn’t eat sugar while training, Corden joked that he ‘make[s] everyone around you fat’ with his cakes.
‘I woke up to someone knocking on my door,’ he said of the moment he received his first TCCC.
‘It was like 8am and they presented me with an incredible chocolate cake and it was from Tom Cruise saying: “Good luck at the Grammys.”
‘I was like: “This is how you look so good. You make everyone around you fat!”‘
While Cruise and Corden have never worked on a film together, they’ve become close friends over the years and the host has had him on his late-night show on several occasions.
The two even sky dived together on one episode in 2018.
Henry Cavill almost didn’t eat the cake but he’s certainly glad he did
Cruise worked with Henry Cavill on Mission Impossible: Fallout
As Cavill climbs the ranks of Hollywood, he has also found a spot on Cruise’s Christmas cake list.
He told Access Hollywood he was initially afraid to try the cake but once he did, he ‘loved it.’
‘I received this cake at Christmas time saying, “Dear Henry, Happy Christmas, from Tom Cruise,” which is an insane little thing to read,’ he said.
‘So I get the cake and I think it’s a sort of super healthy coconut — the kind of thing that doesn’t taste amazing. Nothing treat-like, and so I left it. I just left it in the fridge,’ he went on.
But when the Man Of Steel star finally tried it, it was ‘the most decadent, the most amazing, the most surprising cake, to receive from someone like Tom Cruise. I loved it. Smashed it.’
Cavill has also raved about working with Cruise on Mission Impossible: Fallout. He called filming the helicopter sequence the most difficult and ‘physically the most enduring’ scene he has done in his career.
However, he ‘absolutely loved the sequence, and it was so worth it.’
Cruise has also praised Cavill’s performance in the film, specifically the ‘arm reload’ sequence which he improvised himself.
‘We looked at that over and over in rushes in the editing room. We’re going like, “How did you do that Henry?”‘ he said on BBC Radio 1.

Added the talk show host: ‘I hope I get the cake this year.’
While Cruise hasn’t starred in any projects with Fallon, that doesn’t mean he hasn’t performed with him before.

The How I Met Your Mother actress continued: ‘I receive it, and hopefully, maybe if I talk about it on television I will for sure receive it. But it’s so good.
‘I leave it in my freezer and it lasts until, like, March. Like, I just slowly chip away at this thing.
‘It’s so good. I don’t know why. I’m not even a big sweets person, but it’s so good.’
She added: ‘It’s Tom Cruise deliciousness.’
Smulders bonded with the action movie star when she worked on his 2016 film Jack Reacher: Never Go Back.
She booked the role just after filming for How I Met Your Mother wrapped.
‘I knew I wanted to focus on films, because I didn’t want to be contractually held to something for many years,’ she told ET of her goals after the long-running series.
‘I wanted to keep bouncing around and try new characters and really just challenge myself. But I never thought of, like, “My goal is an action movie with Tom Cruise.”‘
Just like the cake, she found working with Cruise to be a ‘real blessing.’
She told the outlet: ‘It was a real blessing that the first action movie where I had a lot of stunts and I was very physical was a Tom Cruise action movie. He’s such a pro and he’s so smart.’

‘I’ve never seen the bloody cake. Someone in the office went, “It’s the nicest cake I’ve ever had!”‘
‘It is a nice cake,’ the actress chimed in.
Zellweger first met Cruise when she filmed Jerry Maguire with him in 1996.
The film was her big break and it was her first big Hollywood film, but she said Cruise still met her with welcoming arms.
‘You walk in the room, and the whole superstar thing of this person disappears. And the truth of who he is is right there,’ Zellweger said on Yahoo!’s Role Recall.
‘He shakes your hand, looks you in the eye, [says] “Happy to meet you,” and he is. And he’s curious about you and wants to get to know you. And it’s very easy to like him.’
She raved about how ‘amazing’ it was to not only meet him, but to discover that he was ‘warm and kind.’
‘It was amazing to meet someone that I’d admired for so long, who I found to be so genuine and warm and kind,’ she told Variety.
‘And there we were, going to go and do one of my favorite things, create a scene. It was a pretty special day.’
Cruise, she continued, is ‘so thoughtful and committed.’
‘He doesn’t take any of it for granted. He’s very professional and gets a lot of joy out of the process. I respect that so much, and that is what I took away from it. He loves making movies — he loves it,’ she said.
Like O’Donnell, Zellweger added that ‘he never forgets my birthday.’
Cruise also thinks highly of his Jerry Maguire co-star.
‘I’ll never forget meeting Renee. She came in and there was just magic. You just saw this raw talent,’ he told ET.

Naturally, Teller met Cruise while working on the hit sequel.
Teller has plenty of respect for the A-list actor and claimed that he ‘will never be matched.’
‘He spends so much time before you ever show up, I mean years and years,’ he said on Dan Fogler’s 4D Xperience podcast.
He continued: ‘It’s just wonderful to be a part of something like that because he’s doing so much heavy lifting and he’s literally just nonstop and his attention to detail is just ridiculous. It will never be matched.’
He also had a bonding moment with Cruise after he got sick while flying for filming and realized it was caused from having jet fuel in his blood.
‘I was like, “Well, Tom, it turns out I have jet fuel in my blood,”‘ he shared
‘And without even skipping a beat Tom goes “Yeah, I was born with it, kid.” So that was a very Tom moment for me.’
It seems Teller enjoyed working with Cruise so much that he has been in conversation with him about a Top Gun 3.

Powell almost wasn’t involved in Top Gun: Maverick, but Cruise advocated for him to be cast.
He had auditioned for Rooster but lost out on it to Teller. However, Cruise created the role of Lt. Jake ‘Hangman’ Seresin.
While appearing on Variety’s Actors for Actors, he explained: ‘When I missed out on the Rooster role, the conversation I had with Tom was, “Hey, I didn’t get this role, but I actually have a naval aviation movie I’ve been developing. Maybe that’s just what I’m going to do.”
‘And he convinced me that there’s room for two. And I’m really happy, because everything I learned on Top Gun got to be infused into Devotion.’
