Double-Layer Acrylic Cake Topper Case Study: ALION
A real double-layer acrylic topper and name-charm application for a finished Cakylicious birthday cake. This project used a coordinated number “6” and the name “ALION” in the same red-and-white acrylic combination.

The project
The cake design needed two personalised acrylic elements that felt like one set: a large age number for the top tier and a matching name piece for the lower tier. Both use a white face against a red offset layer, creating a clear outline and extra depth against the blue cake.
- Personalised number: 6
- Personalised name: ALION
- Construction: coordinated double-layer acrylic
- Colour combination: red and white
- Application: decorative cake topper and matching name charm
Why the double layer works
The offset second layer gives each letter and number a defined border. On a detailed themed cake, that contrast helps the personalised pieces remain readable without competing with the other decoration.

Choose matching number and name pieces
The same approach can be ordered as two coordinated products. Select the cake size and preferred layer combination on each product page, then enter the number or name exactly as required.
- Personalised double-layer acrylic number cake topper
- Personalised double-layer acrylic name cake topper
For a matching set, use the same layer combination on both products. If the design or colour pairing needs checking before ordering, contact Etch ’N’ Shine.
For bakers and repeat projects
Bakers can use coordinated toppers and charms to build a consistent finish around a customer’s theme. For a repeat design, include the previous order details where available so we can check whether the earlier approved artwork and specification can be reused.
