A monogram cake topper could also be used for an anniversary cake. The cake toppers are available with numbers instead of letters, so if it is so desired to have a year denotation instead of the couples initials. If a decision between the two styles cannot be made, one design on the cake and one on the table as an adornment would be very elegant.
