Designing one caketopper ofter each other I realized it may be great to have some basic shapes that are often used for caketoppers and can be easily transformed to a custom one.

With these shapes you only need to Add Text like this:

  1. Write your text and resize to match caketopper
  2. Weld and create offset of text
  3. Get rid of inner paths
  4. Merge the text offset with the selected basic shape
  5. Add your text as engraving or cut out or score.

This is just one way. Get creative with these!
