To be honest cakes never last very long in our house, but I still like to display them prettily for those few minutes before they are devoured by my 3 little horses (and myself).
I have built up a little collection of cake domes and stands, some new, some old...
This lovely 2 tiered cake stand is by Laura Ashley, it took a lot of perseverance to get my hands on one of these after seeing them online in the UK store who unfortunately don't deliver to Australia, they weren't available in Laura Ashley Australia stores who charge about 4 times the amount for their products as the UK stores anyway. Luckily I finally found a UK eBayer who sells brand new Laura Ashley homewares and was willing to ship to Australia. Hurray!
These vintage glass cake plates with domes cost a few dollars each in Vinnies.
Vintage glass cake stands in small, medium and large...
You can't have too many cake stands can you?
This glass dome cost $2 at a market.
It looks great teamed with this cake stand...
Or this pretty vintage cake plate.
And lastly, a simple white cake stand from David Jones :-)
That's all folks.
Now if you'll excuse me, there's a vanilla slice awaiting me, better wolf it down quickly before school pickup!
