Kids Cake Toppers To Help You Create The Perfect Party Cake

Fondant works great for creating cake toppers. The texture is similar to Playdoh. You can buy it in various colors or use dye to create your own color options. You can roll it out as you would bread dough and cut out various shapes using cookie cutters. It also lends itself nicely to being shaped into various things like flowers, snowmen, animals, trees, etc. Another fun thing to do with fondant is to cover the entire cake with a piece of fondant in lieu of a whipped up icing or frosting.

Here are some other ideas that would be terrific for creating a scene on sheet cakes for kids cake toppers:

WATER AND CHOCOLATE STARFISH

Astronaut Scene Cake - Cover the top with dark chocolate frosting. Top it off with a plastic rocket, astronauts, and mini USA flag.

Construction Scene - Create a construction site using a plastic dump truck and cement truck. Add some trees and shrubs, along with some construction signs and workers. Throw in a few pieces of colored rock candy to serve as boulders.

Farm Scene Cake - Cover a sheet cake with green grass and brown sugar dirt. Add some plastic farm animals like pigs, cows, and ducks. Top with a plastic farm truck that is loaded with "hay", which could be frosting shreds. In addition, if you can find some little plastic fencing and a barn, those too would be great add-ons.

Firefighter Scene Cake - Cover a sheet cake with greenery and a brown sugar roadway. Top it off with a plastic red fire truck, some trees, a fire hydrant, along with some plastic firefighters and a little dalmatian.

Snow Scene Cake - Cover the cake with white frosting. Top it off with some plastic snowmobiles, snow skiers, trees, shrubs, and deer.

Train Scene Cake - Cover a sheet cake with a toy train. Add some trees, mountains, shrubs, and water as part of the scene. Be sure to add "All Aboard" and Happy Birthday (Name).
