This is my wedding cake topper, I need pictures of cakes that would compliment the topper. I don't like the white frosting with it, it looks weird. I need some new ideas.

I used to work in a little gift shop where we sold this line, I have always found them so beautiful, yet very nautral.
Here are a few that may look nice with it or at least give you some ideas about colors or shapes you might like:

I think any cake style will compliment the topper. You just need the right type of frosting on the cake. You will have to forgive me, I don't know the correct name for this but...there is a frosting that looks soooooo smooth it doesn't even look like frosting; it looks like silk or as if it was just poured over the cake. That frosting will look great with your topper. A deep saturated color would look great. Do you have any deep rich colors in your wedding? If so use one of those. If not choose a lovely deep mocha colored frosting. I think that would look wonderful.
Your topper is so nice and unique. I really like it.

We had a chocolate cake with chocolate icing for our wedding cake. The trim was done in really light chocolate icing so it was a tan color. That would look fabulous with your topper. You could have yellow cake with a white filling instead of chocolate if you don't want that much chocolate.

What a beautiful topper you have! I suggest going on line to "Brides" or "The Knot" they have tons of cake pictures and other brides to help you. They have ideas for all aspects of a wedding.

If you get traditional buttercream, made with real vanilla (not clear vanilla) it will take on an ivory color. There is also ivory food coloring paste that they can add to make it darker and not so white. You could also get them to use fondant which makes for a very smooth surface and can be colored any color you want as well. You can have chocolate accents too (chocolate clay roses, chocolate scroll work, etc.) Talk to a baker they can give you some ideas.

Tint the frosting with a very light beige color...like colors decorators would use for say, a skin color....that would be pretty...by the way, that's a very unique, beautiful wedding topper.....way to be different...
What other colors are in your wedding?? That would help to give you a better answer...

Take the topper to the cake maker and have them show you ideas of what they can do!

That's beautiful - I love that line of figurines and giftware! Would look nice on chocolate buttercream - however, depends upon what your wedding colours are... if anything, go with an ivory or darker neutral base, then have the decorations in your wedding colours.

A chocolate cake maybe?

or a pearl color, or gold
