I like Wilton's crystal clear divider set. It gives such height to the cake AND you don't have to stack cakes on top of each other. There is one more tier at the bottom which I didn't use for this cake. It's about $50.00.

I like the homemade fabric covered styrofoam bases like Earlene has on her cakes: http://www.earlenescakes.com/Embroidrycakes.htm
I don't see why that wouldn't work. Also, you could put flowers under it (like a dome) for added decoration.
The glass bowl should work and look stunning ! On another board for wedding planners there was a cake that the baker used glass blocks for the cake stand and put votive candles in it--It was beautiful ! I can't wait to use this idea
Crystal splendor, the cakes look absolutely beautiful......
gorgeous. i love these stands. where did you get them?
I love that cake stand thar Earlene uses too and not to hi-jack this thread, but what do you think of using something like this turned upside down? I am looking for something at least 16 inches in diamemter and would love to know if anybody has any ideas or input.
you could also get those cordless battery christmas lights and put them under the glass
would make a fantastic fantasy setting.

Where is the best place to get that set? (Best price in other words) I have PART of the set that I bought at a sale, and need to get the rest of it! Thanks!

Do you know how to make stands like those? I remember reading something about Earlene having a link on her page on how to make that cake stand but I couldn't find it anywhere.
Has anyone ever tried going to like home depot or something and buying some of those light cover or bathroom tiles or something and using it as a cake stand? You know the ones that are clear but fuzzy and it's pretty thick. I saw someone on tv b4 but didn't know how to go about to make it. Just curious.
Thanks!
michellejohnson: Both cakes are gorgeous. did you make them?
Yes, I did make them. Thanks! ![]()
I really like this cake stand from England, made by Cynthia Venn. It is actually a shiny chrome but I taped it with brown floral tape for this particular cake to represent a grape vine branch.
Now you know I collect pedestal cake plates, so if that were the question it would have to be the shoe cake plate in my avatar.
