    I have a tough task ahead of me. I would love to have a "old fashioned" guy/girl cake topper. However, finding one that looks like us is a bit difficult - he is African American and I am Caucasian. I love this style topper (very classic, elegant) but finding something for us has definately been a challenge. Any suggestions??

    There are some great interracial cake toppers starting to pop up!  I am not sure if they are in your style... but maybe some of these are helpful:

    Hope some of these links are helpful - good luck!!

    I can imagine it might be hard to find anything outside of the norm for cake toppers. Even finding strictly African American cake toppers that I like hasn't been the easiest search (partially because I'm being picky). :)

    Here are some I've found online. Not exactly the style you posted but similar...

    This set is from ebay: http://tr.im/gUC7

    From weddinggazette.com: http://www.weddinggazette.com/product/018361.shtml

    Another one: http://tr.im/gUCj

    And it looks like this set lets you mix and match: http://tr.im/gUCC

    Hope these help. Good luck!

    No problem. I actually managed to fall in love with a cake topper while searching for yours so you did me a favor! ;)

    not sure how much patience you have but... an interracial couple that i know that got married a few years ago had a similar cake topper like the one you have pictured. the bride just got some ceramic paint and painted the bride on her own and it looked great! it looked like it came that way!

    I don't know about everyone else, but when I went looking for interracial cake toppers, I found more white bride/black groom cake toppers and I found NO black bride/white groom cake toppers; and that's a big deal for me becuase I'm an african american woman getting married to a caucasian man.  I can't tell you how many websites I went to where they had so more of the white bride/black groom cake toppers and I couldn't find any black bride/white groom.  I even found websites that had other interracial cake toppers that were mixed with asians, whites, hispanics, etc, but STILL NO black bride/white groom cake toppers.  I'm pretty pissed right now.  And the only way to get them was to buy the groom and the bride separately, which would be the cheap way, and that was not what I wanted. My fiance and I deserve to get a regular cake topper that signifies our love for each other and we shouldn't have to go the cheap route!  Interracial Cake Topper? :  wedding cake cake topper interracial Icon Mad

    Aw JennyCV, im using that one in my wedding too. Funny I posted it on my facebook and everyone was like it looks like Barack Obama and Bre from desperate housewives... lol. that is the only site I also saw black bride and white groom on. Some places you can get them custom made!

    Thanks for all the links.  Does anyone else get slightly offended seeing all the single race cake toppers??  Up until this board all I found for interracial was the cheesy interchangeable couples.

    rosiecheeks - I know how you feel.  I also struggled with finding a black bride and white groom, but ultimately gave up and decided to make my own (it doesn't help that my fiance is a red head - they are apparently also rarely represented in the cake topper business)

    wow it sounds like many of you had trouble with this. Im trying to find a middle eastern man and a white woman, i figured i had no shot to begin with, so one of our artisticly talented friends will be making it for us!

    Her younger sister was adopted from india and married a white man, so shes already had some practice at custom made toppers.
