No Topper, Please

This is the picture of a cake first cake that I ever "saved" to my wedding file on my desktop. To this day, I am still in love with it.

Love the black ribbon, love the broach, love it all. I was so in love with it's simple beauty that I didn't even realize that something was missing....a cake topper! I guess I just assumed that every cake always has a topper. Some cakes are adorned with flowers, others with monogrammed initials, and even others with the traditional b&g statutes. But I must confess, I think I like my cake without a topper.

I searched the knot and found the cakes above sans a cake topper and I think they all turned out ok. What do you think...must a cake have a topper?

    I love the cakes without toppers. I am thinking I'll go that way too.

    I agree. No topper. You don't really need one.

    Agreed, you don't always need a topper. I like the way all those cakes look without!

    We're not using a topper. I think it just depends on how much of your personality you want to incorporate in your cake.
