Wedding Cake Toppers

Topping your wedding cake can transform it to make it your own. There are so many options when it comes to cake toppers, and most types can be completely personalised just for you. A lot of cakes don’t look complete without one. Toppers really draw people’s eyes to the cake, so here are some ideas to get you started.

Wedding cake toppers made of clay are a beautiful and personal way of topping your wedding cake and ,because they are made of clay, a brilliant keepsake too. You can add pets, hobbies or aspects of your personality into them and can guarantee there’s no others out there the same. One of the most popular companies is ‘Feats of Clay’ based in Northampton. You can see some of their masterpieces on their website, as well as their prices. They aren’t the cheapest cake toppers around, but you have to remember that they will last a lifetime if kept correctly!

Laser Cut toppers are beautiful and can be personalised. Ones such as these from Etched Studio have templates to follow, from simple laser cut wording, to framed wording with embellished detail. You can also get something totally unique by emailing them with your ideas. You can order in different materials, from Rose Gold metallic to a wooden finish – so you can make them match your theme. After the wedding, you could add the topper into a box frame for a beautiful keepsake.

If you want to give your guests a giggle with your cake topper, there are so many out there. From brides dragging their grooms to the alter to slogan toppers – theres sure to be something you love. You can also keep your hobbies in the loop with your cake, with a topper like this from Etsy – a weight lifting groom.

Its also an amazing idea to include your theme in your cake topper. Getting married in autumn? Have some cute bride and groom hedgehogs on top of your cake. If yours is a winter wedding, include this by having some little snowmen to finish your cake. Have wooden aspects to top it off and include your rustic theme. It’s a great way to incorporate your theme in your cake.

If you don’t want anything like the above on top of your cake, try adding fresh or sugar flowers instead. Make them match your wedding bouquet and this will tie in the rest of the wedding and make the cake more unique to you. Of course, you can always add flowers around the other toppers too! Or if you’re feeling crafty, have a go at making your own topper. Grab yourself some fimo clay like this from hobbycraft, and craft your own keepsake cake topper. It’s a great way to make something personal and unique, and you’ll be so proud to have made something yourself! Try making something based on your likes – say you both like pugs, make a bride and groom pugs. Even if it doesn’t work out – it will be a fun project!
