When it comes to cake toppers, the traditional crystal or porcelain bride-and-groom figurines are out. Couples want to show their creativity and imagination, infused with a bit of fun. Need some ideas?

According to Cannon’s Cake & Candy Supplies in Newark, Del., couples are topping off their cakes with their initials. Also popular are more modern bride-and-groom figurines that are laser-cut and silhouetted.

Another cute way to display your love? Pick a saying, such as “All You Need is Love” or “We Did What?” then have it designed as modern, yet cheeky, topper.

Lee Slaninko of Sweet Somethings Desserts in Wilmington, Del., says his bakery can make any cake topper a couple desires. He says couples can never go wrong using fresh flowers, which can be placed on top of the cake or cascaded down the sides.
