The beauty of a cake usually lies on the type of the toppers used on it. It's like the crowning glory of the cake, without which it lacks a certain personality or uniqueness. After all, a plain looking cake, with no toppers, is just like that, plain and simple. But if you or your friend is having a bridal shower, you surely don't want to have such a dull looking cake, right?

Choosing the best bridal shower cake toppers is always fun, but not always easy because there are so many things you can consider before picking one.

1. Romance is of course the right feeling for the moment, but think about how romantic the couple is to each other. Are they super romantic that anybody who sees them together can easily feel the sweetness between the two?

If yes, you can use the classic rose design toppers for the cake. But if you don't want the whole flower, you can just settle with a few scattered rose petals on top of the bridal shower cake.

2. Is the bride a very simple person? Down to earth, with no hint of ego sometimes? That's not a bad thing, really, and it's actually quite good for you who is choosing her bridal shower cake toppers because it simplifies the process for you. Just write the name of the bride or of the couple on the cake and add a few words of congratulations or best wishes with it.

3. What is the theme of the wedding? You can also incorporate that into the bridal shower cake, starting with the toppers. For example, if they are both book lovers and their wedding theme will utilize that, then you can place a small book topper on the bridal shower cake.

Surely you can find a porcelain miniature book in specialty cake shops. Designing a cake and choosing the ideal bridal shower cake toppers can be a lot of fun, but also tiring if you are not decided early on regarding the overall look and design. Go easy on yourself and just think of one identifying thing that can be related to the bride and start thinking about the topper with that in mind.
