thanks the spray is £5.95 for a bottle and it comes in gold , silver, red , green and pearl...the pearl is lovely...just wish the light was better when I took the parcel cake piccie cos not so happy with the angle on the second to me it looks abit swint I can assure you it wasnt..lol....the first picce I feel is better but again the light isnt brill..you can see the differenece betweent he lilac and red one when there is good light..oh well..do you think it will still be okay to use.
The crystal toppers I made myself ..first time making them aswel..really pleased with how they turned out...
both cakes where so shimmery and sparkly ..its just a shame they dont show as well in the pictures.
ALso the red cake was a chocolate cake and the lilac one was just sponge with jam and buttercream.

Does this pic help? I adjusted the tilt, shadows etc. Can't see how it looks without uploading it though so here goes: Lovely cakes, the lilac one is just stunning.

Or this, adapted from the second pic The first one shows the topper off better and the contrast looks clearer, so although the second one shows the lustre and delicate colour better I reckon the first would have more impact for a website.

They are both so beautiful, the toppers are fab. when you stack your cakes do you use dowels and do you use a cake board for each layer?

Did you go for the 2" difference or the 3?
