The E is for the groom (Eric) and the K is for the bride (Karen)...generally I would suggest the bride go first, but this is what they asked for


Thank you so much, this is awesome, thanks for the tutorial, you had a fantastic idea

just wanted to add a photo of the final topper on the cake

This is a 6",8", and 10" cake.

the coolest thing I think about this whole thing is that the bride told me they wanted the E and K but didn't say exactlly what font they wanted or how they wanted them joined, just that they wanted the E first and one higher than the other and not too curly and fancy with the letters but still elegant looking. Turns out when I went to set up the cake Sat. that they had huge EK emblems (IDENTICAL to the topper font and all) on the walls and on their napkins and on the table centerpieces! I had NO idea that they were incorporating it into the decor (they never mentioned that before) and it turns out they were a perfect match. Don't you love when that happens???

Thanks for sharing! You did a great job. Did you just use foil? or did you put a cardboard under it?
