u n b e l i e v a b l e ! !i commissioned a couples carbonite as a surprise gift for my husband on our wedding day. my husband is a huuuge star wars geek and i knew he would flip over this.i worked with paul via email -- he was so helpful and so quick to respond. i had waited until the last minute, and paul saved me by creating this in just a couple of days! i sent a few pics, one of me in my wedding dress... and what he made is simply amazing. the detail and likeness is unreal.needless to say, my husband was over the moon with the gift -- and ran around the entire reception showing it to everyone he could find.i'm already thinking of what i can get from paul next!!

Paul made us the most amazing and customized cake topper! It looked exactly like our mii characters on the wii and had our wedding attire perfect. Upon request, he even added my little pet angora rabbit which looked exactly like him. I could not be more pleased with Paul's service and products.

This was a huge highlight of our wedding! We got so many wonderful responses about this cake topper. Totally worth every penny as it is a fabulous keepsake. Paul is great to work with and does an amazing job...we couldn't have been happier with our choice.

I ordered a mii cake topper from Paul Pape, and it was just perfect. I knew I wanted a cake topper from Paul before we even picked a venue or caterer, so I ordered from him super early. I emailed him as I got more details (my dress, his tux, the pose we wanted) and the result was spot on! His email replies were lightning fast (sometimes within an hour).Paul is a true artist. He makes more than just mii toppers. He makes other sculptures, so I would definitely suggest him for other cake toppers as well.When I got the cake topper, I was at first worried about it being heavy, but because the base is so wide, the cake (my cake was considered a "wimpy" cake because it was covered in whipped cream instead of regular cake frosting) was able to easily hold the topper with no additional support. Now, our cake topper sits on our dresser and it's a beautiful addition to our room. It's 1000% worth the money.

Paul created a cake topper based off a comic book topper for us and did an AMAZING job. I didn't know what to expect since he was creating a sculpture based off a picture and the final product was perfect. He was incredibly responsive to all of my emails and he lets you know exactly how long everything will take, gives you updates on his progress and has wonderful customer service. The product is worth the price since he is making one of a kind custom items for you and you can treasure them for a lifetime

I ordered a custom xbox 360 avatar cake topper from Paul Pape designs for my wedding as a surprise to my fiancee. Paul was very professional and responded to my e-mails very quickly. He accomodated for all of my requests and did a wonderful job! I cannot express how excited I am to have this as our cake topper. It has a lifetime warranty and will definitely be displayed in our living room for years and years! I will definitely be coming back to Paul for any and all of our geek needs! Thanks so much, Paul!!

In a case of need and a very short time frame Paul Pape managed do fulfill my expectations 101%. He was VERY responsive (which I consider very important when doing business with someone on the other side of the planet), flexible and above all didn't need to have everything explained more than once.This is how I like to do business and I can absolutely recommend his service AND his products.A very satisfied customer from Luxembourg.

We had found Paul searching for unique and geeky cake toppers. We had saw his examples on his page and with only two months left until our wedding date, we were definitely pushing our deadline. Communication with Paul was very prompt; he was able to get back to us within the day every time. He worked things around and was able to get our cake topper made in a few weeks. Shipping was next day, and arrived exactly on time, on a Saturday. Our cake topper was in attendance for our wedding in Maui and a wedding reception in California. It had survived the round trip flights, but did not survive our guests when they decided to play with the cake topper (the brim of the hat which the character is wearing broke). Without hesitation Paul said he would fix it and ship it back free of charge; he offered a lifetime warranty for us. Its on his way to him now for repairs, but as soon as it gets back it will be permanently encased in a glass case. The cake topper was a great conversation piece; everyone commented on how cute it was. It was amazing how well Paul was able to capture the spirit of the characters in their pose. The price is going to be more than what a generic cake topper costs, but it is an item which my wife and I are going to value and cherish as a keepsake for a very long time. If you are looking for a creative, one of a kind item for your wedding I would highly recommend Paul. He has been a pleasure to work with and have been more than accommodating of our circumstances. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-V65YiHwAoXM/Ti3m2Xw-DWI/AAAAAAAAF_U/hlkKt0GntjM/s1600/Maui+Wedding+Photographer-32.jpg Tam, Southern California

Paul was an absolute pleasure to work with. He accommodated every request with prompt professionalism, even the last-minute ones. The cake topper came in safely and well-packaged. He never took more than 6 hours to respond to emails, and answered all questions very clearly. The cost of the item was clearly reflected in the final product received. We would definitely commission another original Paul Pape Design!

Paul Pape made my custom Mii cake topper, which I was so excited about! When I found him online, I knew the cake topper would be my big splurge. He is awesome to work with, very accommodating of requests, and extremely responsive. I don't think I ever waited more than a couple of hours for an email response from him, and he seemed very happy to work with my customization ideas. The cake toppers are pricey; but I was more than happy to pay for one that was exactly what I wanted, completely customized (with my gown and flowers, his tux and shoes, etc.), and worth keeping forever. And he'll repair any damage if you just ship it back to him. All this, and he seems to have a sense of humor too!! I would recommend him to anyone.

Absolutely wonderful! Paul made us a unique cake-topper of our miis from the wii console. They were the talk of the day - everybody loved them. The lifetime guarantee is fabulous, just in case of life. They sit on our mantelpiece now and I look at them everyday and adore them. Paul is a joy to contact - he's a great guy with a truly remarkable product - worth every penny!

Paul made our wedding cake topper, Mario and Peach, completely custom made. I sent him a few pictures of what I wanted and he pieced all of the details together perfectly! We were so excited to add this special piece to our beautiful wedding cake, and look forward to displaying it for the years to come. Thank you, Paul!

I provided my pictures and information into an email and received a quick response. Also, when I was interested in making changes to the order with enough notice, Paul Pape Designs was accommodating. My order both was shipped and received as quoted and arrived in great condition! My suggestion for future brides is to make sure your cake will hold the cake topper, as my baker was concerned of the weight of it and placed dowels in the cake to support it. Everything went well, we got many great compliments, and the service was great!

Of all of the millions and trillions and kabillions of things I planned for our wedding, all the tiny little ideas I researched and the things I obsessed about and the details I imagined... the cake topper that Paul Pape did was one of my absolute favorite details. I was more excited about these then about almost anything else, and with good reason, because they came out absolutely perfect.He did a custom sculpture of our Xbox avatars, and they were absolutely AMAZING. He will actually look at photos of your dress and custom-make a version of your avatar WITH your dress... and his attention to detail was unreal. They look like us (or like our avatars) and our outfits look EXACTLY right! He also offers a lifetime warranty, so when my poor avatar's arm cracked sometime during the post-ceremony pack-up, we just sent the figure back and he fixed it, free of charge. Incredible customer service, and a super nice guy to boot.And most of all... yeah, so, our avatar sculpture toppers.... I LOVED THEM! Have I mentioned I love them? They are an amazing keepsake, and are now (3 months after the wedding) prominently displayed in our living room, where they will be for years to come. Thank you so much Paul!

Paul was amazingly communicative and thorough about the details of our Wedding Toppers. There were some unique aspects to our figurines and Paul's attention to detail is astounding! They are more than we dreamed they would be! They capture our likeness and the likeness of our Miis so well! Amazing! Sooooo glad we made the decision to order Toppers from Paul Pape!
