Cake toppers are my favorite.  You can take a completely boring cake and make it into something unique and colorful, and, no one wants a boring cake for their birthday.  I am super excited to share TWO fun DIY straw cake toppers.  They are inexpensive and give such a fun and playful look to any birthday cake.
