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.

The Equestrian Cake Topper

Living in Kentucky, I am very familiar with horse lovers!  Horses are such a remarkable and awesome animal.  They radiate beauty and strength.  They are a friend and aid to men (and women).  They are part of a lifestyle for many.  A lifestyle of sport and class.

If horses are a part of your lifestyle or perhaps they are simply an animal you enjoy whenever and however you can, you may want to incorporate them into the special occaisions of your life.

Horses are beautiful on top of a cake and make a stunning cake topper.  The beauty  and strength that these creatures embody are a stunning.  I particularly like the cake topper pictured below.  It has a country feel, and while it depicts a man and women on horses, it feels like a relaxing afternoon with your love and friend, enjoying the peacefulness.  It tells a story of two people, on a journey together.  That’s a lot for a cake topper, but I think this one really pulls it off.
