Un-Bear-ably Cute!

Awhile back I shared with you my idea to top our cake with miniature Eames chairs to represent my obsession with chairs and our love of mid-century design. Since Mr CC refused to have associate his likeness to something as large as a chair I hit the internet again in hopes of finding a cake topper that represented us as a couple and was a little quirky.

Since the cake topper was such a small element in our wedding I wanted to keep the overall cost low at under 50 bucks. This meant that my 2nd favorite cake topper, sweet little love birds from Anne Wood were out of the question.

After some searching we ended up with this one of a kind cake topper from Etsy artist Melabo.

Yes those are bear heads on the bride and grooms body and yes I am completely and totally in love with it.

You’re probably wondering what in the heck bears have to d with the Cotton Candies. My first name happens to be Veronica. When spoken by native Spanish speakers the can sound like a B making my name sound like Bear-onica. This tickles Mr. CC to no end to the point in which he has shorten my name to just Bear.

As for what it’ll actually be topping, we’ve ordered a small 6 inch double stack round cake with a smooth butter cream finish from our baker. Perfectly simple and exactly what we wanted. For our guest we’ve ordered 8 dozen cupcakes in various flavors including red velvet, pina colada, and lemon poppy seed.

What are you ladies topping your cake with?
