Hey everyone!

I'm doing a wedding cake Oct 10th, and it's using pillars. I've never used pillars before.

The type of cake is a rustic feel. Martha Stewart has done some of these and I'm using one of her's for inspiration.

I've looked at amazon.com and globalsugarart.com, and honestly I have no idea what type of pillar system will work best for this. I need to get stuff ordered really really soon, but I'm at a loss as to what I need.

I'd appreciate anything you could tell me! What type of pillar/plating system will work best? Is there a good place to buy them? Be as specific as possible, please. icon_smile.gif

Thanks so, so much everyone!!

Oh, and I'm terribly sorry if I'm posting this when someone's already asked the question. If they have, I'd love it if I could just be directed to that post. I searched for the topic but didn't come across anything.

I'm also fairly new to CC, and I've never posted before... So hello, everyone! icon_smile.gif

Hi Annie:

The pillar setup is with push-in type pillars that only use a single-plate separator system. Here's the Wilton link for construction:
