HI, I'M DOING MY FIRST WEDDING CAKE STARTING TOMORROW. I WILL BE USING THE 3 TIER CAKE & DESSERT STAND. I WILL BE DOING 12", 10" AND A 8". I WILL BE DOING 2" AND 2 OF EACH. MY QUESTION IS DO I NEED TO DOWEL THE 12" WITH THIS STAND? I KNOW THE 10" AND THE 8" SHOULD BE O.K. THEY WILL BE ROUND. THANKS
Is this the Wilton stand with the styrofoam base that the three pillars are inserted into? If so, I did a cake for my daughter's banquet the same sizes and didn't dowel them. Mine were each two layers with custard in the middle of each.
Is this the stand? If so, this is the one that I used and I didn't dowel any of them because each cake stands alone on the stand. But Sundine is correct. You do need to dowel if your 8 or 10 are sitting on top of the 12 and even if your 8 is going to sit on top of your 10.
YES, THIS IS THE CAKE STAND. THANKS YOU GUYS FOR YOUR REPLIES . I JUST WASN'T REAL SURE ABOUT THE DOUBLE 12" X 2".
