It’s almost silly to write a blog post about this Pom Pom cake topper since there really is only one step… except that it turned out so adorable and was so simple that I felt compelled to share it with you all, regardless.

HOW TO MAKE A POM POM CAKE TOPPER:

First, lay out all of your poms that you plan to use for your cake topper.  I stuck with the party colors in pinks, yellows and oranges.

Next, based on the size of your cake, decide how many skewers you are going to use.  I also recommend on varying the heights of the wooden skewers to add more interest.

Meri Meri sells some of my favorite party supply items and their Pastel Striped Candles were a perfect cake decoration.  Plus, it was the perfect color scheme of the party.  They came in a box with pink, white, yellow and oranges.

My advice to all us busy mom’s out there, stop baking cakes and spending forever decorating them.  I have a few friends who have a true talent with baking and decorating cakes (that’s you Amanda + Michelle), but to the rest of us, make life easier on yourself and simply buy a store bought cake.

I bought two mini cakes from my local grocery store and they were delicious.  They were easy.  And they cost $6 a piece.
