So I just finished the cake below for a companies fifth anniversary. I'm not sure whether or not the top needs "something" or whether it looks fine as is.

I don't want it to look too busy but I'm not sure about all the negative space on top. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated! icon_biggrin.gif

Thanks
LL

Does the company have a slogan or anything like that??

You could incorporate that possibly??

Just a thought.

You could put a smaller border around the logo.

It looks great! Doesn't need anything more on top. Anything more might take away from the logo.

It looks perfect! Very "understated elegance"! I wouldn't do a thing to it.

When putting together a brochure or any sales literature, it is very important element to have plenty of white space to balance.

What is that symbol in the lettering on the cake? Maybe you could make a corners border out of that?

I like it just the way it is... but you could add a border around the name or maybe write "Happy 5th Aniversary"? Not sure if that would be cheesy or not! icon_smile.gif

I agree, any more added would take away from the company's logo!

WOW! You guys are fast. Thanks for all the great responses! I think I'm going to leave well enough alone and keep it as is. One, the more I look at it the better I like it and two, I'm too pooped to do anything else to it icon_lol.gif . Thanks again

I agree. I think it would highlight the logo.
