Boss Baby Cake Topper 7pc Set - Kids Birthday Cake Decorations

This is a 7 piece Boss Baby cake topper set - paper toppers you push into a cake to turn a plain one into a themed one in about two minutes. Seven pieces is enough to build a scene across the top of a cake rather than planting a single picture in the middle and hoping. A themed cake from a bakery is one of the biggest single costs in a kids party, and almost nobody has the time or the fondant skills to make one at home. A topper set quietly replaced both. Buy a plain iced cake from the supermarket on the way home, push the toppers in at the kitchen bench, and what lands on the table is a Boss Baby cake. The child asked for a themed cake and got one; the difference between this and a hundred-dollar custom job is invisible from where they are standing.

It works on any cake you already have - supermarket mud cake, a plain sponge, a slab cake from the bakery, or a tray of cupcakes. Nothing has to be baked or iced to suit. Or spread them over cupcakes - seven toppers across seven cupcakes turns a plain batch into a matching dessert table, which photographs better than one cake anyway. Two minutes, no skill - no piping, no fondant, no melting chocolate, and nothing that can go wrong at 11pm the night before. It costs a fraction of a custom cake - which is the entire reason topper sets exist and the reason most people never go back. How Do You Use Paper Cake Toppers? Check whether each piece already has a stick. If any are loose, a toothpick and a small strip of sticky tape on the back does the job perfectly and takes ten seconds. Push them into the cake at different heights and slight angles rather than in a neat row - staggered depth reads as a scene, a straight line reads as a fence. Put the tallest piece toward the back so nothing hides behind anything else, and leave the front of the cake clear for candles and for cutting. Insert them shortly before the cake goes out, not hours ahead, because paper draws moisture out of icing and softens at the base. Do Cake Toppers Go In Before or After Refrigerating? After, always. A fridge is a damp environment and paper toppers go limp and can bleed colour into the icing if you chill the cake with them in place. Decorate the cake, refrigerate it plain, and push the toppers in as you take it out - two minutes of work and the difference between crisp toppers and sad ones. The same rule applies on a hot day outdoors: keep the cake inside with the toppers in, or add them at the last moment. How Many Toppers Does a Cake Need? For a standard round cake, five to seven pieces fills the top without crowding it. Fewer than about four and the cake looks under-decorated; more than about ten on a small cake and the pieces start overlapping and hiding each other. A set of seven sits right in the middle of that, which is why it is a common pack size. If you have a large slab cake, use all seven across the surface and space them wider rather than clustering them in the centre. Who Buys These Parents who have left the cake to the last minute, which is most of us and nothing to apologise for. People who can bake perfectly well but have no interest in learning to model fondant. Anyone who has priced a custom character cake and decided the difference is better spent on the present. Grandparents doing a quiet cake-and-candles afternoon rather than a full party. And people running a themed dessert table who want the cake and the cupcakes to look like one idea instead of two. Pair It With The cake is the centrepiece; the table should follow it. The Happy Birthday Banner and Confetti Balloon Set goes on the wall behind the cake and is the single best thing you can add for the photos. For cupcakes, the 24pc Unicorn Cupcake Toppers and Wrappers and 24pc Minions Cupcake Toppers extend the theme across the dessert table. Fill a room rather than a table with the 76pc Mermaid Theme Balloon and Banner Set. For the going-home bags, 12pk Donut Lolly Loot Bags with Stickers and 100pk Drawstring Favour Pouches both work cheaply. Since Boss Baby suits a first or second birthday, the Baby Shower and 1st Birthday Balloon, Banner and Cake Topper Set covers a lot of the room in one order. And for tableware, the Paw Patrol Party Set is the closest match in plates and cups. Frequently Asked Questions How many toppers are in the set? Seven pieces. That is enough to dress a single cake properly, or to spread across seven cupcakes if you would rather do a dessert table than one cake. What are they made of? Paper, from non-toxic material. They sit on top of the cake as a decoration - they are not edible and should be removed before the cake is cut and served. Do they come with sticks? Check the pack on arrival. If any pieces are loose, a toothpick taped to the back takes seconds and works exactly as well as a factory-fitted stick. Can they go in the fridge? No. Refrigerate the cake first and add the toppers when you take it out. Paper goes limp in a fridge and colours can run into the icing. What size are the toppers? The supplier does not state individual sizes for this set, so we have not listed them rather than guessing. If you need exact dimensions for a particular cake, message us before ordering and we will measure them. Are they edible? No. They are paper decorations. Take them off before serving and keep them away from small children once removed. How far ahead can I put them in? Twenty minutes to an hour before the cake goes out is the sweet spot. Any longer and moisture from the icing starts to soften the paper at the base.
