I am looking for any plush chipette toys or any figurines. I am having trouble finding anything that has to do with the Chipettes. I am needing something to go on top of a two tier birthday cake. I am up for ideas on what to use instead too.
Thanks in advance!!!

I do cake decorating as a side business. You have a few options for cake toppers...little toys obviously. You can sculpt it out of fondant (you can make your own , marshmallow fondant tastes best) or buy some already made. Or you could print them out like someone else suggested. Make sure you laminate them (even if it's with the do it yourself stuff) to keep it from getting covered in greasy stains. Then the other option is to do a frozen butter cream transfer. You can transfer just about any picture you want using this method. Coloring book pages are best. You don't want too may details. Look for simple pictures. I have done everything from Star Wars to Tinkerbell using this method. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV2DZDuv9XA
Wow that's a tough one. I think your best bet is trying to print pictures that you can make into decorations and/or cake decorations. If I was doing it, I'd try to find pics and then print out small pics of them and glue them onto toothpics to use on cupcakes.

I have been around quite a few stores shopping for Easter and I have to say I haven't seen any alvin & the chipmunk toys...your best shot is probably toys r us.
McDonalds gave out Chipmunk and Chippette toys with their happy meals a few months ago - there were all 6 of the characters, they would be the perfect size for the top of your cake.
I guess checking ebay would be the best, and ask friends around you if they got any of them from McD's.
I found one on ebay that might work
