Got Questions About Our Edible Cake Toppers? We’ve Got Answers! 🎉🍰

Here’s everything you need to know about our toppers—how they taste, what sizes we offer, and how to make them look their best!

Are Your Cake Toppers Edible? 🍽️

Yep, they sure are! All our toppers are printed with edible inks onto either icing or wafer paper, so they’re 100% safe to eat. You can enjoy them just as much as the cake underneath!
  

What Do Your Cake Toppers Taste Like? 🍭

Our toppers are lightly sweetened to perfectly complement your delicious cake. They won’t steal the show, just add a little extra sweetness to your treat!

What’s the Difference Between Icing Toppers and Wafer Toppers? 🤔

Here’s the lowdown on our two types of toppers:
Wafer Toppers:

- Made from thick, lightly sweetened rice paper.

- Pre-cut and ready to pop out of the sheet. 🎉

- Best with buttercream—they look gorgeous on soft icing.

- They can get a bit floppy in humid conditions, so it’s best to add them just before serving to keep them crisp.

Icing Toppers:

-  A thin layer of icing—perfect for smooth, iced cakes.

- Pre-cut and easy to peel from the backing.

- Prints tend to be sharper on icing but can smudge if they get too wet, so use with care! (Dry hands are your best friend here!)

- Slightly creamier in colour than wafer toppers.

 

Do I Have to Cut the Cake Toppers Out Myself? ✂️

Nope! All our toppers come pre-cut, so you don’t have to worry about any scissors. Just peel off the backing for icing toppers, or gently pop out wafer toppers from the perforated sheet. Easy peasy! 👍

  

Got Any Tips to Make My Personalised Cake Toppers Look Amazing? 📸

We’ve got you covered! Here are a few tips for getting the best print quality:

- Choose a high-resolution image (we recommend 1,000 pixels on the smallest edge).

- Light-coloured backgrounds work best for a sharp print!

- If your photo has low resolution, don’t worry, we’ll still print it, but the quality may not be as high.

- For JPEG format only (no Word docs or PDFs, please!).

- Cupcake toppers are great for 1-2 faces, so keep it simple! 

   

What’s the Print Quality Like? 🖨️

We think it’s pretty fantastic (if we do say so ourselves)! The print quality may not be as sharp as a regular photo, but hey, you can eat it! Plus, it looks amazing on your cake. 😋

Will the Colours Change When You Print My Photo? 🎨

We try to keep the colours true to your original image, but because we’re using edible inks, there might be slight variations—just like when you print a photo at home. Nothing too drastic, though—your cake will still look gorgeous!  
   

What Ingredients Are Used? 🧁

Our cake toppers are made with the highest quality ingredients:

- They’re vegetarian and vegan friendly.

- Nut, gluten, and lactose free. For a full list, check out our ingredients page.

  

How Long Do Cake Toppers Last? ⏳

Our toppers are good for at least 2 months when you receive them. If stored properly in an airtight container, they can last up to 6 months. The use by date is clearly marked on the packet. Once you open them, we recommend consuming them within 10 days for the best taste and quality.
