After checking “pick a cake” off your wedding to-do list, the next step is to pick a cake topper. Cake toppers are meant to accent your cake and wedding theme but also show off you and your husband’s personality together.  Whether you choose an animal cake topper like the ones pictured or a floral cake topper that accents your theme, remember it’s all comes down to how the cake tastes!

You can’t miss them, because they are definitely the ‘in’ thing right now. Yes, Vintage/Shabby Chic Cake Toppers. It’s not longer about the flowers or the monograms, but the little love birds, or words that are displayed on the top or around your wedding cake.  As I was playing around Etsy today I found a few to share.

What do you think of this new trend?  Are you doing using a topper on your cake or leaving it plain?
