Approved's Top Cake Toppers




Gone are the days where the only option available for the top of wedding cakes is a generic bride and groom (thank goodness!!). Today, there are so many amazing options to finish off your cake and here are Approved's top 5.

1. Bent wire topper - Personalised, Lazer cut wood cake toppers have been around for a few years now, so these metal versions really feel up to date and would suit any style of wedding from rustic to super modern with its industrial feel. These toppers from Not on the High street are a bit on the pricey side at £35 but they're so pretty!!! And you can find similar options on Etsy for different prices.

TIP: Why not spray paint your cake topper to match your theme.


2. Sign post topper - I love this topper, it's so fun. It would suit a casual, outdoorsy or barn wedding. It would be beautiful on a traditional cake but it would look amazing on top of a Cheese wedding cake. Plus its a bargain at £10 from Pretty flamingo designs on Etsy.


3. Woodland love topper - Everything on this website is so beautiful but my favourite is this gorgeous Stag and Doe archway topper. So delicate and gorgeous, it is a real show stopper and would really suit a minimalistic cake. This topper and so many other gorgeous ones are from Norma and Dorothy for £20





4. Floral beauty - This topper at Bridenew from across the pond are so gorgeous. I could quite happily plan my wedding around this topper. It so delicate and special. This version, at $19.99 is one of the cheaper options but it would be worth splashing out a bit to have it personalised wth your name or monogram.

5. Ultra modern topper - This contemporary beauty is glamorous and structural, it would suit a minimalistic wedding and wedding cake creating a real centrepiece and has the advantage of being so visual that it could be framed or hung up after the wedding as a keepsake. The cakes pictured, although gorgeous are not what I would choose for it. Something simple and minimal like a matte or marble effect cake would be fabulous. This topper in lots of different colours and finishes from PS Weddings and Events on Etsy from £32.39.



Or, as a shameless plug, here are my NEW Daisies Cake Toppers from Approved Crafting, coming soon to my shop.

So there we are my top 5 for 2018. Using an interesting cake topper is a great way to personalise your cake but its also a quick and easy way to transform a plain cake. 

I couldn't resist including some of my extra favourite, fun ideas that I found on my cake topper investigations. Enjoy!

10 Alternatives to a traditional wedding cake

Ok, so let's face it, not everyone likes cake and nobody likes the huge price tag attached to wedding cakes. But panic not! There are so many alternatives to a traditional fruit sponge that will knock your guests' socks off and in most instances, save you some pennies to put into your honeymoon G&T piggy bank. With lots of newer ideas I have intermingled some oldies but goodies. And yes we've seen them before but WHOOOAAHH MAMMA they are still good. Pour example......... 1. Cheese Towers - If you, like me, enjoy cheesy good times and teetering on the edge of a heart attack, then this is the one for you. Serve it with crackers, biscuits and slices of fruit. It will be a winner with any wedding party. And if you are in the North Wales /The North West of England, why not check out my buddies at The Little Cheesemonger in Rhuddlan, North Wales. The people there are beautiful but more importantly, the shop sells cheese, bread and Gin - enough said. Cheese towers star...

Anxiety, Apologies and starting a new......

So, I have been wanting to write this post for a while. Over the last few months I have not posted or promoted or done anything very much with Approved Crafting. I have had to let a couple lovely customers down which I absolutely despise and had to put off work. The reason? LIFE! Or more precisely the Anxiety of life. I'd like to open up a bit...... (T.M.I. ALLERT!) I am a hard working, creative, kind and reliable person. However, I am also shy, introverted, lack confidence in areas and struggle with feeling like an imposter. I have had anxiety and panic attacks since I was 18. I have had counselling, been part of studies and been on and off medication since then, all with varying success. At my best I have been just.... well... normal. At my worst I can't leave the house. But most of the time I am somewhere in between. I have had to accept that anxiety and the ups and downs it brings is just a part of my life and always will be. Starting my own business has been so m...

Work, life, panic, repeat.........

Last week I wrote about my struggles with anxiety, I was so overwhelmed by the lovely messages that I received afterwards, so thank you to those who read it. I know this is a craft blog and you are saying, Lowri, why don't you just show us some cards or how to make a pompom or something, and I will but I just wanted to write a quick follow up. I found it so interesting that many of the messages I received contained the same phrase ........  "It's so nice to know I am not alone". Anxiety and Depression can feel so isolating. Be it from feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, unconfident or just plain embarrassed. When you are on a downward spiral it is just easier to stay at home. Stay in bed. Stay away. But life needs to continue, right? Work, family, life obligations and the rest. If you weren't feeling shit before, having to doll yourself up, slap on a smile and go and talk to a client, manager or twatish mum at some god awful playgroup, will definatly m...
