Fairy Tale Wedding Cake Toppers
If you’re looking for a theme for your wedding or just the cake, here are some ideas of inspiration: Princess tiara or a crown, doves, swans, roses, hearts, frog prince, turtles, dragons, knights in shining armor, a prince on his white steed putting a hand down to his lady, a prince and princess dancing, stars, a glass slipper, a pumpkin coach, or a horse and carriage, a crystal ball, or a character cake toppers from any of the classic or modern Disney fairy tales, cartoon characters such as Mickey and Minnie or even Taz, characters from movies such as A Nightmare Before Christmas, Shrek and Alice In Wonderland.
If you know what type of cake top you want and can’t find the perfect fairy tale “cake topper” then the cool thing to do is be creative. A plastic toy, ceramic figurine or salt and pepper shaker set can easily be made into fairy tale wedding cake toppers! Anything lightweight enough to sit on top of a cake is fair game. Of course, it’s not just about the cake top. A shaped cake can also reflect a fairytale. I’ve seen beautiful princess and the pea and Alice In Wonderland themed cakes! You may also consider icing text wrapped around your cake stating “Once Upon A Time” . . . or . . . “And They Lived Happily Ever After” or any number of romantic fairytale verbiage. Talk to your cake baker about shapes, styles, text and what they can craft from fondant.
