Bling Bling Cake Toppers

So you have heard the term Bling.  Do you know what it means?  It is a hip hop term for flashy ostentatious jewlery or other accessories, etc.   It is often used to refer to things that are glittery, sparkly and flashy.

It is also used to describe what some people are looking for in a cake topper.  What does a bling bling cake topper look like?  Well they often have sequins in their design.  Sometimes rhinestones, or other jewels.  Sometimes made from crystal.  They can be gold or silver. They are bold and flashy!  They add sparkle and catch your eye.  They make a statement.

Monogram cake toppers are a great way to add some bling.  You could have a jeweled monogram cake topper.

Other custom cake toppers can artistically add the sparkle and bling that one desires.

Here are some examples of bling bling cake toppers!

Bunny Bunny

Not long ago I posted about cake toppers for cat lovers and briefly discussed that there are those animal enthusiasts that are passionate about specific types of animals. Cats are definitely one, but rabbits, bunnies, are also a very popular animal. They are cute, soft, cuddly and often associated with spring and new life!

So why not on your cake? A rabbit would be great on a spring or Easter cake, but also on a birthday cake for the bunny loving child or adult. There are also some great wedding cake toppers with rabbits on them.

Below see a beautiful and delicate hand crafted cake topper. This caketopper depicts two rabbits. It would be great as a wedding cake topper, but would also work well for any spring special occasion. You can see more of this artists work by clicking here.

Choosing a cake topper.

There are a million cake toppers out there. If you are like me, you may want to have some sort of guideline or method for choosing a cake topper. So here are a few things to consider when shopping for a cake topper.

1. Consider the size. You want something that is going to fit your cake and look appropriate. A cake topper that is tiny on a huge cake is lost and looks out of place, however a cake topper that is huge may not fit on a smaller cake or again, look silly and out of place. So consider the size as you are shopping.

2.Consider the construction and material it’s made with. Most of the time this isn’t an issue, and if it is, it can be worked through, however a cake topper that is too heavy for a delicate cake could be a problem.

3. Consider the occasion. Obvious. A wedding cake topper probably needs to have a romantic theme, a birthday cake topper, a birthday theme!

4. Consider those the cake is honoring. How can you make it unique to them? What are there unique styles and likes?

5. Would you like an edible cake topper or simply a decorative one?

6. Consider your budget. Cake toppers range in price greatly, so consider your budget and what you would like to spend.

Those are just a few guidelines to get you started and thinking about the right cake topper for you!
