Wedding Cake Topper
This was the top layer for my son's wedding cake. It had to be transported to the other side of the state, so it wasn't assembled until we got there. I had just started decorating cakes, and didn't think to take a picture of the assembled cake. The topper is a Lenox china swan figurine. There are royal icing swans and white chocolate shells around the base of each layer.
I saw the swans in a Wilton yearbook. I made the wings with royal icing on parchment paper. I piped the swans bodies on the cake with buttercream icing and applied the wings while the buttercream was still soft.
So pretty. Love that topper! Did you figure pipe the swans on the sides???
