‘Tis the season for Tom Cruise‘s famous Christmas cakes. 

The Hollywood actor gifted the decadent dessert to his top celebrity friends this year, including “Top Gun: Maverick” co-star Glen Powell.

“The Cruise cake has arrived…” Powell posted on his Instagram Story earlier this month.

The “Twisters” star was gifted a personalized note from his celebrity friend, which read, “To Glen Powell, warmest wishes to you this holiday season, Tom Cruise.”

Another A-list celebrity who made the cut on Cruise’s nice list was comedian Mindy Kaling.

“The cake is coveted in this town,” Ellis explained on “The Jennifer Hudson Show.” “It’s literally like getting a trophy. We get the cake every year. It’s always a surprise when you get it, because you’re so excited to get it — and you wanna make sure you’re still on the gift list.”

Cruise is known for sending a coconut cake from a bakery in Woodland Hills, California to famous friends, including Tom Hanks and Rosie O’Donnell.

“I freeze it and then I eat it frozen, so I just eat it every day. That’s what I did last year for Christmas. I started it when I got it and I ate it every morning, so I had a sugar rush. It was not good for my health, but it was delicious,” Klementieff said.
