The Top Cake Toppers difference

At Top Cake Toppers we print every order in‑house here in the UK, using state‑of‑the‑art edible ink technology and stringent food‑safe procedures. That means:

1. Sharper detail & richer colour – our calibrated printers capture every splash and brushstroke.

2. Same‑day dispatch on orders placed before 1 pm (UK time) Monday–Friday.

3. Eco packaging – toppers arrive in a recyclable board envelope with a compostable bio‑plastic pouch, minimising waste while protecting freshness.

4. Customer support – real bakers on the phone and email 9 am–5 pm GMT, ready to help with sizing, storage or application questions.

Hints & tips for flawless application

1. Choose your canvas
• Buttercream yields the smoothest results. Pipe a flat swirl or dome and chill for 5 minutes to set the surface before adding your disc.
• Fondant: roll a thin round of sugar paste, adhere it to the cake with a dab of water or piping gel, then place the topper on top.
• Chocolate ganache or royal icing must be almost set – still tacky but not wet – so colours stay vivid and edges sit flush.

2. Handling wafer vs icing toppers
• Wafer paper is slightly translucent and best placed on pale backgrounds; mist the reverse with a light spritz of water to soften, wait 10 seconds, then apply.
• Icing sheets arrive on a plastic backing. Pop the sheet in the freezer for 30 seconds; the disc will ‘snap’ off cleanly when you flex it.

3. Cutting
Use clean, dry scissors or a craft‑knife. A straight‑edged circular cutter warmed briefly in hot water also gives a neat edge.

4. Prevent curling
Store unused toppers flat in the pouch. Once cut, keep discs between two pieces of baking paper until you are ready to use them.

5. Keep colours brilliant
Apply no more than 24 hours before serving if your frosting contains moisture (e.g., whipped cream cheese). For fondant or crusting buttercream, three days is fine.

6. Serve like a pro
Place finished cupcakes back in their carrier box and re‑chill for 10 minutes – this sets the topper and keeps fingerprints off the print. Bring to room temperature before guests arrive to preserve flavour.

Perfect for…

• Children’s parties – let little strikers pick their favourite design for a personalised treat.

• Match‑day snacks – swap crisps for cake at half‑time and keep spirits high.

• Sport‑themed weddings – surprise the groom’s table with a display of football‑infused favourites.

• Corporate team‑builds & five‑a‑side leagues – brand each design with edible logo stickers (contact us for bespoke printing).

Creative serving ideas

1. Cupcake wall: arrange your decorated cakes on a green‑felt backboard to mimic a pitch – perfect for Instagram snaps.

2. Mini trophy stand: pipe buttercream ‘grass’ onto a rectangular board, place a fondant goal at one end and stand the cupcakes like players in formation.

3. Party favour boxes: slip a single topper‑clad cake into a clear PVC cube and tie with football‑patterned ribbon for an easy thank‑you gift.

Storage & safety

Keep toppers in their zip‑lock pouch at 15‑20 °C. Avoid humidity – kitchens over 60 % RH can cause wafer paper to soften prematurely. These toppers are sugar‑based and completely safe to consume; colours conform to UK & EU legislation  and are vegan friendly.

Upgrade your bakes from Sunday‑league to Champions‑League calibre in seconds. With Top Cake Toppers football colour splash discs you’ll score a hat‑trick of convenience, artistry and flavour — leaving you free to cheer on your team while the compliments roll in.
