cake top

We were in Canandaigua last week for work and stopped by the Rose Corner Bakery. That is where we discovered a brilliant idea. Cake tops. When making a wedding cake you have to cut the top off to make it level. Instead of throwing away the cake toppers, they put them in a container, frost them and sell them for $3. Pure genius! Lucky us, someone had ordered a pumpkin wedding cake with spice frosting so that was available. I think all they need is a catchy name like "Frosted Toppers" a little marketing and they will have a hot product on their hands.

  1. Brilliant! Growing up, one of my neighbors decorated cakes and she would let us eat the toppers. YUM!

    That cake in your pic looks heavenly!
