Cake Toppers are themed decorations that add instant fun to your cakes.

This is a cake that I made for my granddaughters 4th birthday! She wanted construction stuff so I found a backloader to use as the main decoration. Orange gumdrops made cute construction cones. The dirt was made by grinding up chocoloate cookies.
Here is a sampling of some of the fun toppers available.
Round cakes were used to keep the photo sizes small and consistent looking. Some of the toppers would look better on sheet style cakes.

One fun thing with these pictures is you can get a few ideas on frosting your cake. For a circus cake you might stripe the edges of the cake with two colors of frosting.
Small toys from your local store can be used as decorations. Just make sure to wash them off with hot soapy water before placing them on your cake.
Theme Candles can be used as cake toppers. This page is full of fun candle ideas.
