Do the letters come as one solid piece or separate?
Unless otherwise specified, each letter is its own piece so that it can be placed appropriately on a wider range of cake styles and sizes. They can be placed all in a line with no overlap (if the cake is large enough) or overlapping to create depth on top of the cake. Some brides prefer a solid look however, and those are generally treated as Custom Work, where letters are cut from the same piece of metal for a ‘welded’ look.
