20th July 2011 - Although cakes have been an integral part of all celebrations for quite a long time, the idea of Cake Toppers isn't that old.
Moreover, there are a lot of celebrations and festivities where people don’t think its useful going for toppers and prefer leaving their cake empty on the top.
However, with the modern innovations that are being done to the toppers, it is best to go for them as they are going to bring a lot of individuality and humor to the celebrations by being on top of the cake.
There are a number of ideas that can be seen in these and some of them are mentioned as follows.
The traditional form of bride and groom topper has always been there but now people have started swapping them for figurines that resemble like themselves in real life.
For example, a lot of couples choose figurines that depict their jobs, personality traits or habits as they are bound to centralize the theme of their wedding and also bring a dash of humor to it.
However, as the celebrations differ, so do the toppers. Now people even go for thematic and animal toppers aside from the conventional people toppers.
If a couple of individual is looking for individuality in their topper then there are a number of bridal salons and vintage shops, online, that can help procure some. These come custom designed in wood, Bakelite and porcelain.
Then there are also the caricature figurines that can be custom designed to look like the real bride and groom. The traditionalists can go for the classic look while the ‘different’ couples could try the bobble headed Christmas nightmare or Day of the Dead figurines.
The thing that should be remembered here is that the Cake Toppers are going to look like an extension of the couple itself and if chosen well then they can add a lot of charm to the cake.
Moreover, the bride can coordinate the material and theme of the topper with their jewelry.
With each passing day, a lot of new examples and innovations are coming up – its best to look into some of them and try go for a ‘different’ and original wedding.
