A modern silhouette

A type of cake topper I have stumbled across lately is the silhouette. There are many variations and types  from figures, animals, words, letters and so on, the options are fairly limitless. I found all of these on Etsy and there are also stores which will custom make pretty much any silhouette you want in any colour (although I think the black is most effective for this style!).

There are some gorgeous 'bride and groom' silhouettes to choose from: 

And bust or cameo styles as well: 

I love this hand-in-hand one particularly: 

There is also plently of written toppers. Either with names: 

Letters:

Or even just a single initial: 

There are cute little shapes: 

And phrases (the heart just melts, doesn't it?):

 

For the animal lovers, these adorable daschunds caught my eye:

And the athletic among you: 

For the comediens, this one cracks me up: 

And although this one isn't technically a silhouette, I couldn't go past it. I think this is just so sweet!
