Gator Cake Topper
So…full disclosure: I am not so much a Florida Gators fan, even though I live right here in Gator Country. However, when in Rome, yes?
Aren’t these darling? These Gator cake toppers pay homage to the University of Florida mascots – and maybe the alligator that lives in your Read More
Cake Topper Friday: Diamond Engagement Ring
Helloooo, Cupcake.
I may have just found my favoritest. Cake topper. EVER.
DIAMONDS.
Specifically, one mongo huge diamond, in the form of a solitare setting, nestled in the luxe cream cheese icing of a perfectly sumptuous red velvet cupcake.
OMG.
So, Girls, can you think of a better way for Read More
Stephanotis Nosegay Cake Topper
My senior year in high school, the sweetest boy took me to prom. I wasn’t big on corsages, especially those wrist-y kind that were so popular at the time. So I asked for a nosegay, a little bouquet that I could carry. He obliged with the most adorable little cluster of pink tea roses, surrounded by baby’s breath and variegated leaves and pink ribbon. Sigh. And wow. I can super still remember that 
So nosegays have always had a little place in my heart. My girls carried nosegays instead of full bouquets for my wedding, in fact (Nikko blue hydrangeas in that instance.) There’s just something so classic about their Read More
Caketopper Friday: Anchored Sailboats Caketopper
Isn’t this sweet?
You know that my happy place is the ocean. It’s a good thing that I live in a state that’s surrounded by saltwater on three sides, yes?
Well, even though I haven’t formally cemented my list of 2012 New Year’s Resolutions, floating around Read More
Cake Topper Friday: Vintage-Style Christmas Cutouts
Next week I have a big fat week of Christmas-themed cakes planned for you. I mean I could just post regular old wedding cakes–but then I wouldn’t really be in the spirit would I?
In order to gear up for Christen’s Christmas-avaganza 2011 I thought we’d start here with this cute cake topper. This is a Scandanavian-style wood cake topper, featuring a beautiful Christmas tree, complete with presents and robins. Love. It. Especially the robins. It’s vintage and Read More
Cake Topper Friday: Simply Silhouette Wedding
I feel like I should rename this Show Stopper Friday. For realz.
This silhouette cake topper is made by Simply Silhouette Weddings and it is kind of amazing. I could be partial though because I am all about some silhouettes lately. I have seriously “pinned” every DIY silhouette tutorial on Pinterest in an effort to get one made of my son. I’ll let you know how that goes…probably not well if history plays a role. I should probably leave it to the professionals because Read More
Cake Topper Friday:: Runaway Groom Cake Topper
I have a secret. For months I have avoided photos of perfectly good cakes for one reason. Because they have a Runaway Groom Cake Topper.
I really am not a fan of these. I’ve been keeping it in for months and decided to finally talk about this today. Because after all it just is a cake topper. It is actually meant to be a joke. I assume that if a bride felt that she really needed to drag her man down the aisle she probably wouldn’t be marrying him. Right? Or, do I put too much faith in society?
To me this isn’t funny. I guess I just don’t get it. Why would people want this on their cake? I had a friend who dated her boyfriend for ten years. Yes, ten. Sure by the time they finally walked down the aisle we made many jokes about how long it took and at the rehearsal dinner we all said the word finally about six hundred times. However, if she had put this on her cake I would probably think it was a little bit sad.
Maybe my view is tainted because the only woman I’ve ever seen put this on her wedding cake (in real life) was actually a girl who literally had to convince her husband to marry her. He’s miserable today.
Maybe now that I’ve gotten this off my chest I’ll be able to post those gorgeous cakes that I see with this topper on it instead of groaning. Loudly.
I’m not trying to be Negative Nancy or the end all be all of Wedding Cake Toppers. It’s a personal choice and I say if you love this topper and you think it’s hilarious by all means get your Runaway Groom on girlfriend! But please tell me why.
Are you with me? Do you think this topper is kind of obnoxious? Or do you love it and think it’s the funniest thing you’ve ever seen.
Cake Topper Friday: Gumpaste Bride and Groom
It always amazes me what cake artists can do with a little gumpaste. Seriously. Have you ever seen that stuff before it’s carved and molded into something like this? It’s not exactly the easiest substance to work with. How it goes from a lump of white stuff to this I’ll never know. I guess that’s why I just write about cakes instead of making them.
But go ahead and check out the new Mr. & Mrs. on top of this gorgeous pink cake. The bride and groom are carved to cartoonish perfection – perfect to add a little bit of fun to the top of your wedding cake. I also love the cake that they sit on Read More
Cake Topper Friday: Gnome Wedding Cake Toppers
Oh gnome you didn’t!
I’ve been waiting forever to say that. Well. .at least since last Halloween when I tried to convince my husband to let me dress up our one year old as a garden gnome. He wouldn’t let me–but I had all sorts of giggle-inducing puns ready just in case. So since my efforts were thwarted back then I get to share them all with you people. Lucky you.
But seriously…gnome cake toppers?! I love it. The certainly aren’t just for gardens anymore. These adorable cake toppers are made by PhenomeGNOME (I think we would get along just fine with our gnome jokes). You can personalize your gnome by choosing hair, clothing, mushroom, flower, and the base color. They are hand made and hand painted and just gorgeous to look at. Of course–if you fancy, they could just sit prettily on your shelves as well. Who gnomes…it’s up to you.
