Cake Toppers As A Quirky Tribute

By Ruth Barker

## What Exactly Are Customized Cake Toppers?

Cake toppers are small, cute and one of a kind figurines that make awesome gifts for your families or friends. They look just like the huge plastic figure ones and are made of a non-toxic German soft clay. Try picturing the look of that someone once they see themselves as figurines -- only smaller in size -- for the very first time!

## How Are They Made?

All you need are some photos of the subject. Artists use these photos to create the mini likeness. If you have good quality photos, from a few different angles, clearly representing your subject, the artists will have no problem designing this unique gift idea.

The miniature can be personalized to your liking. From the colors, through to the clothing and detail -- it is totally up to you to decide. Whether you want your wife to be dressed in a sun dress or your staff to be dressed in corporate attire, all of them can be done without any problem at all.

## How Big are They?

These figurines' height are about 15 centimeters or slightly over 6 inches tall. They don't only make fantastic and unique gifts, but they are also water-proof and non-toxic. Pets can also turn into a figurine! Imagine the joy you can bring to your friend once she receives the miniature of her cute little puppy with a bone in its mouth. That will totally light up her day, even if the puppy has no idea at all!

You can even have an *action shot* of your co-worker or loved one. If they like golf, capture their swing in a humorous, light-hearted way. Or you can "dress up" your girlfriend or wife in a fancy gown or even a super-hero outfit.

You can also have two or more subjects on the figurines. You can have the miniatures of three of your best friends with you dressed up in superstar outfits or you can have the miniature of both of your mom and dad dressed up in casual evening wear.

## What Is So Special About Cake Toppers?

People appreciate unique gifts. Going to the store and just buying a stock item, like the venerable "tie for Dad" does not demonstrate genuine affection. The extra time and thought required to consider ordering a figurine will demonstrate warmth, endearment and is a lot of fun!

Therefore stop and think if there is a celebration coming up in the near future. Then, start thinking the kind of pose and dress that you want to appear on the celebrated one's figurine. Finally find the correct timing to snap his/her picture or go through the albums and get some pictures to be presented in adorable little figurine form!
