petits four dozen

i am making petits fours for the first time for a friend's baby shower in a few weeks. i am intimidated by the whole thing to the point where i will probably do a practice run beforehand. and while i am up for the challenge of making the cakes themselves, i am not about to take the time to learn how to pipe frosting into rosettes, letters and other decorations. so i looked online to see what sort of novelty cake toppers could be purchased, and it was interesting.
