“Cake is happiness! If you know the way of the cake, you know the way of happiness! If you have a cake in front of you, you should not look any further for joy!” ― C. JoyBell C.

Cake is happiness, cake is love, cake is an addiction. SO................ with your wedding cake, what will you top it with?

There are so many ways to make it your own. Don't feel as if the standard bride and groom on top, unless that is what you like. Like I said, make it your own, it's your day, it's your cake.

For example, I was working with a young couple on a very limited budget. They were having a hard time picking a cake topper. I then found out that the groom to be's nickname was squirrel, because he liked to hunt. I just smiled really big, and said, "What about two straw squirrels from Pier One, Crate and Barrel or Pottery Barn. This last year they had the cutest squirrels for the fall and they would fit perfect either one a full sized cake or a sweetheart cake. The bride to be, immediatly jumped on it. She loved the idea, all they need was to add a couple of emblishments to the actual squirrels to dress them up.
And the guests got a big kick out of it.

Now I'm not say that this is for everyone, but it was perfect for this couple. And I want to take the time to show you some different ways of topping your cake with the some are not so mainstream.
