Custom Clay Cake Toppers for Your Special Celebration
Add a personal touch to your cake with a keepsake that lasts long after the party. I hand-sculpt every topper to match your theme, story, and favorite memories.
Indulge in some Harry Potter magic. This cake topper was for a special girl's birthday, and it was the fifth consecutive year I've had the honor of creating a topper for her celebration. It features a custom figurine, Hedwig, spell books, a broom, and the sorting hat.

About One-of-a-Kind Cake Toppers
I do not use any molds or machines, which means every piece—from a detailed Harry Potter Sorting Hat to a custom family portrait—is shaped entirely by my hands. When you order, we are not just making a cake decoration; we are crafting a 3D sculpture that you can keep on your shelf as a permanent memento once the cake is long gone.
Why Choose a Hand-Sculpted Topper?
Because no two celebrations are the same, your cake topper shouldn't be either. Whether you are planning a milestone birthday, an anniversary, or a unique themed wedding, a mass-produced topper just feels impersonal. I take your photos, stories, and ideas and turn them into a tiny, tangible memory.
How I Work
Every piece is made from durable polymer clay. Once sculpted, it is baked and cured to ensure it is hard, water-resistant, and ready to sit atop your cake without any worry.
- Themed Magic: Love Harry Potter, travel, or a specific hobby? I love bringing fandoms to life. I can sculpt miniature props like books, wands, broomsticks, or even tiny animals to match your theme.
- Personal Portraits: Want a topper that looks like you and your partner? I can recreate your outfits, accessories, and even your pets.
- Built to Last: Unlike fondant toppers that get eaten or discarded, these clay pieces are designed to be kept forever. They make for a perfect desk display or shelf keepsake long after the last slice of cake is served.
If you have a specific vision in mind—even if it seems a bit quirky or 'out there'—I love a good challenge. Send over your photos or tell me about your theme, and let’s figure out how to put a little piece of your heart on top of your cake.

I am the Malkin behind this little brand, and honestly, my desk is always a mess of scraps, tools, and half-finished ideas. But there is nothing like the feeling of sculpting a moment from your life into a tiny, permanent clay treasure that you can hold.
