I never imagined that I would be having such a difficult time finding the 7 inch disposable (push in) white pillars. These are the ones that come in the Wilton course 3 kit. I have been to 4 different Michael's, AC Moore, my local cake decorating shop and Walmart and can't find them. I even checked on eBay and can't find anyone selling them. I know that I can order them from Wilton and Sugarcraft but the shipping is two to three times the amount of the pillars. Does anyone have any other idea where I could check. Thanks so very much!!

I believe you can get them at www.cakedeco.com, but I think their minimum order is $100. Do you have some longer ones? You can cut them to the size you want.

Sugarcraft has these. I ordered about 3 sets of them last time I ordered them so it's been awhile, but I just checked their website and they do have them. They have both the white and the clear push-in 7" pillars. Good luck!

Jenn123 - Your suggestion could work because I can find the 9 inch pillars. What would you use to cut the pillars??? Thank ya much!!!!

I cut mine with a sharp serrated kitchen knife. You have to find a way to secore it so it doesn't move when you saw through. You could also use a saw or drimmel. You can't use a pvc pipe cutter, it just cracks it. BE CAREFUL!
