    I was having a look at cake toppers the other night Bob, they were nice, made of fimo (sp) type stuff and made to look vaguely like the couple and were about £70 a pop so if you need some extra dosh...

    I only do them as a hobby, but if i put uppers in them i reckon it will be a whole new sideline:rotfl: :rotfl:

    I can't believe the price they charge for stuff and honestly so easy to make:o
