Martin, that is why I don't even think about selling my cakes.  I've had with dealing with customers. From 2000-2010, I worked in a call center of a major corporation as customer service/sales rep. It was unbelievable some of the things you had to endure.  So now this is just for fun.  Don't know how you guys do it.  If I had to deal with customer over a cake, some of them would end up wearing it.

No she was , she wanted to know every dimention of the cakes down to tha thickness of the marzipan on the fruit cakes and the icing ,when i delivered it the people at the venue told me they had had her mother phone or email at least 4 times a week for the last 8 months , checking and double checking and questioning . so really i got off lightly in the grand scheme of things !!!

Well....Martin, that is a strange combination. By themselves with a different cake motif they would look really cool, but this combo really is unusual. My Goddaughter did that to me on her wedding cake. It was the one that I frilled out in white, and at the wedding she had these huge fat love birds that were ceramic that she plopped on top. After that the whole cake looked goofy. Someone came up to me at the wedding and asked me if they were salt and pepper shakers. They sure looked like it. But on a different not, I LOVE your flowers!!!

I feel for you.  It must have killed you to put the topper on.  Oh well, the customer is always (not) right.
