Decorating By LaurensCreations Updated 7 Sep 2006 , 3:18pm by vicky
I have an oval, stacked, 4 tier wedding cake to make & Wilton just informed me they no longer carry the oval separator plates!! What do I do now? Is there any way I can make a decent cake w/out the plates?? Please help!

P.S. I already went to E-Bay, no luck, every plate BUT the oval available.

For a stacked cake, couldn't you use double cardboard cake rounds, cut to oval shape and cover with fancy foil. Place a little coconut or ground nuts or something underneath (unless the people have allergies)?
I had to locate them a year ago. I had luck with a small place in Maryland, I think it was. I no longer have the receipt for them.
I did a search for the plates and found several places that had them. One, didn't offer online purchases. I called them up and told them I was DESPERATE! The manager of the store, called me back and was willing to make the transaction over the phone. I got them about 5 days later.
Chaps my *** that the oval pan set is still sold but the plates have been discontinued.
I found a set at a local bakery that carries Wilton stuff. You might try calling around.
Did a quick Google search and found these:

Have never shopped from them or anything, just found on the search. There were lots of other hits in that search too. Searched for "oval separator plate cake"
The problem is that a lot of places haven't update their online information. when you go to actually order them, they are all sold out. I do believe it was the 11" that I had the most trouble locating.
My neighbor got married last year...hunted forever to find them for her.
they're getting divorced this year. if i could get them back from her, I'd send them to you.
Thank you all sooooooo much! I've purchased 2 and only need the small 8 1/2 x 6 now. I searched e-bay for hours,before I posted here! lol, I don't know why I could'nt find them there. Worst thing was the shipping charge was more than the cost of the plates <sigh> Again, Thank you!! for your help.
Have you emailed Delores at www.sugarcraft.com yet? Usually she has what I need and gets it to me right away.
