We checked out a lot of cute boutique shops in the St. Germain area, and one happened to be our cake topper shop, Boutique Pixi & Cie!
It’s such a cute store - the store is loaded with over 1000 little figurines. They even have a museum of all their creations on the 2nd level!
I love the butler and maid figurines, and the couple dancing together! They are obsessed with the Simpsons and I almost bought a tiny set of the Simpsons the size of a pea all sitting together on their couch watching a TV set.
A miniature version of Paris! If you carefully at this photo you can find a bride and groom on one of these shelves.
Here’s how they all start out at the Pixishop factory!
They still sell a number of cake toppers, and the bicycle cake topper is still available to order by phone or fax. I asked about the company’s website and the owner told me in French that it exploded like an atomic bomb, hehe! Here’s the business card and contact info for anyone interested in purchasing the cake topper!

Do you know the cost of the cute topper? In euros or dollars? We wanted to go to Paris for our HM, but we decided on Mexico instead. This would be such a cute way of incorporating Paris into our big day.
It was around 60 dollars for the cake topper.
Thanks for the info. I’ll be in Paris this summer so i’ll definately drop by the shop!
hi there - this is the exact cake topper i have been searching desperatly for - any ideas where i can purchase this?? Thanks so much for your help!
I tried to use the web address, but it doesn’t work. Is there an alternative ? Many thanks!
the best way to contact them is by phone. the website no longer works and they can accept orders via fax. there’s another shop in paris that sells the same cake topper but they only accept payments via fax too.
I purchased the same cake topper - from the same store in Paris for my wedding. My husband owns a mobile bicycle repair shop and posted a picture of it on his website (ontheflychicago.com) and he gets a ton of people calling us asking us where we bought it. I no longer had the information and was trying to find it when I came across your pics. Thanks for posting it. I am happy I can now pass on the information to others because I know how long it took me to find this one.
I just bought one on-line from France. The name of the website is pixboutique.com. This cake topper is currently on the front page, so you don’t need to speak french to navigate it. You can pay for the figurine through paypal and it takes about a week to ship. I just ordered yesterday, so I will update this if there are any problems.
I would *never* have found pixiboutique if it were not for this posting. So thank you!
