Frequently asked questions
2 Alexa & Kris
I don't know which is cuter, the little cake topper, or the little stack of Hogwarts text books.
3 Doe & Stag
This cake is so sweet (pun intended)! I love the little Patronus silhouettes.
4 That Topper
What if you don't want to be too obviously a Potter fan? Then a subtle nod to the series in the form of a magical cake topper will work beautifully.
***
Consider a tasteful, enchanting snitch that perches delicately atop your wedding cake, or perhaps a pair of wizarding wands that cross in a heart-shaped embrace. For those who relate to the house pride of Hogwarts, subtle house crests or your favorite house's colors as ribbons can add that special touch of magic without revealing too much. It's all about that whimsical charm that whispers 'Mischief Managed' to those in the know, while still maintaining the elegance of your special day.
5 The Houses
This could be a cake for any occasion, really. Fifty points to whichever house this baker is from.
6 So Beautiful
Okay, now I'm going to cry. This is just so gorgeous! It's hands-down my favorite on this entire list.
7 Tim Burton?
This looks like what a Potter cake would be if Tim Burton baked it.
8 The Sorting Hat
If that's not chocolate frosting, I'm going to be very disappointed.
***
Imagine the wide eyes as guests marvel at the centerpiece of your dessert table—a delectable cake adorned with a perfectly crafted Sorting Hat perched on top. It's not just a symbol of Hogwarts' magical sorting ceremony, but a delicious promise to all Potterheads in the room. With each slice, you're sorted into your very own Hogwarts house, flavor by flavor. Whether it's a rich chocolate for Gryffindor courage, a velvety vanilla for Slytherin cunning, a fruity burst for Ravenclaw wisdom, or a nutty delight for Hufflepuff loyalty, this cake whispers to your soul, "Dessert is coming."
9 So Simple!
This cake is so simple and elegant! I love the color scheme... we'll call this color "Golden Snitch Glimmer."
10 Mischief Managed
I love that this couple incorporated such a fun part of the series into their cake: the Marauder's Map!
11 This Cake Though
It's hard to tell where this amazing cake ends, and the props begin. OMG. There's so much going on here!
12 Always
I mean, really. Again, it's perfectly acceptable to cry at a wedding, especially when something romantic and sweet and tragic comes up.
13 Hannah & David
This couple has the right idea: The Deathly Hallows, Golden Snitch, and Marauder's Map details, and a color scheme made for fall(ing in love).
14 Again!
Okay, you have got to stop with this quote! I mean why does a cake evoke such strong feels?
15 All the Nerdy Things
Maybe you're a fan of more than just Harry Potter... so go with cupcakes, like these! No Face alongside Harry Potter. Swoon!
16 Mr. & Mrs. Bean
I don't know who they are, but these two have great taste in books, movies, and cakes.

This is what a super-tall, Hagrid-sized wedding cake looks like in action... impressively gorgeous!
