How to Apply Acrylic Cake Charms with Clear Pins and Tape – A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you looking to add a unique and elegant touch to your cakes? At Manimani Design Studio, we create custom acrylic cake charms that elevate your cake designs for any celebration. In this easy guide, you’ll learn how to apply your acrylic cake charm using the included clear acrylic pin and double-sided tape—ensuring a secure, professional finish.


Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Unpack and Prep the Charm

Carefully remove your acrylic cake charm from the packaging. Wipe off any dust or residue to ensure a clean surface for proper adhesion.

Step 2: Insert the Clear Pin

Take the clear acrylic pin and insert it into the slot at the back of the charm. This pin will help anchor the charm into the cake. Make sure it’s snug and stable.

Step 3: Add the Double-Sided Tape

Peel the backing off the double-sided tape provided. Place it on the back of the charm, overlapping the base of the pin to keep everything securely in place. Press firmly.

Step 4: Choose the Perfect Spot

Pick the ideal location on your cake—preferably a dry, smooth surface. Avoid frosting-heavy or moist spots that could affect adhesion.

Step 5: Press and Secure

Gently press the charm onto the cake where desired. Apply light pressure to help the tape bond without damaging your cake’s surface.

Step 6: Admire Your Cake!

That’s it! Step back and enjoy your beautifully finished cake, now accented with a custom Manimani acrylic charm that adds charm, style, and a personalized flair.
