Those "porcelain" figurines from the past that you think would be wonderful to use were very seldom actually porcelain.
Usually they were a fired ceramic, although often unfired and merely painted. Many of them were quickly and cheaply done and were often as tacky as the plastic figures of the ‘50s.
Today we say tacky things that have survived a hundred or more years are quaint and cute, thinking that people from that long ago could not be expected to have the good taste we have today.
Perhaps someone in your family however does have the porcelain or ceramic figurines that graced the top of your parents’ or grandparents’ cake?
Using one of those wedding cake toppers would be unique even if a thousand of them were used on wedding cakes—that is the only one that ever topped their wedding cake!
Fresh or marzipan flowers, spun sugar designs or figurines also make beautiful wedding cake toppers.
Wedding bells, doves, hearts, or your favorite pets as figurines right next to the bride and groom figurines would make a very personal design.
Custom made marzipan figurines can be made to resemble the bride and groom.
You can also replace human figurines with dressed up teddy bears or other cute or funny animals or your favorite cartoon characters.
Ever thought about dolling up cake-top figurines to reflect your favorite pastimes? Maybe you play the piano, sail or bowl? Use your imagination and surprise your groom :-)
May be he likes a motorcycles? Then look here:
What do you think of these beautiful Swarovski crystal bridal cake toppers? Are they unique or what?
We are excited to introduce brand new line of Swarovski Crystal Cake Toppers: Monograms, Hearts, and Flowers from Very Different Cakes!
Again, please bear in mind: if your wedding has a religious theme choose an appropriate wedding cake topper.
