Why does the decoration matter?
A wedding cake topper makes the cake personal
The wedding cake is one of the most photographed details of the celebration day. A personalized wedding cake topper adds your names, initials, date, or a short text that makes the cake perfect for your celebration.
The decoration doesn’t have to be large or complicated. Often the most beautiful result comes from clear text, good proportions, and a material that fits the wedding atmosphere. We offer numerous shapes and fonts, so everyone can find a cake topper that suits their style!

Boho and nature-inspired
A wooden wedding cake topper pairs beautifully with flowers, branches, and earthy tones.

Text
What can be written on the wedding cake topper?
You can put the couple’s names, initials, date, shared last name, or a short text on the wedding cake topper. Often the best result comes from keeping the text short, clear, and easy to read.
Material
Wooden or acrylic wedding cake topper?
A wooden wedding cake topper brings warmth, naturalness, and a handcrafted feel to the cake. It is especially suitable for romantic, boho-inspired, nature-themed, and softly toned weddings.
An acrylic decoration can suit a modern and glossier party style. If you want a decoration that feels warm, timeless, and memorable, a wooden wedding cake topper is a great choice.

Schedule
When is the best time to order a wedding cake topper?
It’s best to order the wedding cake topper well in advance, preferably at least 1-2 weeks before the wedding. This allows time for production, finishing, and delivery without extra rush. If we receive the order on time, we can produce and ship it the same day at no extra cost! Delivery takes 1-2 postal days when the post office is normally open.
Urgent order?
If the wedding day is near, choose a simple model and indicate urgency when ordering. Ask about delivery time in the chat before ordering, so we can check if the topper can be made in time. It’s best to place the order as soon as possible so we can start production immediately!
Sustainability
Checked for cake use
Eco Decor Oy is registered as a food contact material operator, and its operations are supervised according to official requirements. The cake toppers are designed to be used as cake decorations according to the instructions provided with the order.
The part that comes into contact with food is pre-protected with foil according to EU regulation (EC) 1935/2004. This way, the part of the topper placed on the cake is separated directly from food contact.
The product is reusable. After use, the topper should be gently wiped clean and stored in a dry place. The foil should be replaced with a new one before each use.How to order
