I hand crafted these cake toppers from gum paste. They can take a couple of hours but the result is always a fun reflection of the couple. My friend Karen Hill at Wedding Cake Art Sydney, makes these and also runs cake decorating classes.

If you want to keep your toppers long term though, I suggest you buy plastic or ceramic toppers as the sugar ones will deteriorate over time.
Have fun with it.
Or just be traditional.
