I have been wanting one of those round topsy cake studies from Bronwen Weber, which are normally available through caljavaonline.com (or something along those lines, don't have the website in front of me just now). My oldest munchkin is having a "Martial Arts"-themed party, which we will hold at his karate school, and I want to make him a few dragon cakes to mount one on top of the other, since we are having a bunch of people (school and karate school kids with their parents) but no other food besides the cake (not allowed anything but drinks and cake!). But now that I've put together enough money to get the cake study, the @#R@#$!#@$#%$ thing is out of stock through the site! Does anybody know of any other place to get one?

Thanks in advance! icon_smile.gif

Here is a website to try - unfortunately, they are sold out of the round as well.

Good luck,

Don't think the link worked, minerva16 ... I tried looking it up on globalsugarart, though, and couldn't find it either! icon_sad.gif Pastrychef22, it's basically PVC piping with three plates that lock onto it, and which is flexible enough to move those plates to achieve a topsy turvy look.

Have you thought about contacting the manufacturer? Maybe they sell them through a catalog or something?

Why is it called a Cake Study? Does anyone know? Seems to me Cake Steady is a more accurate term.

you'll need to copy and paste the caljava link into your browser, then remove all the spaces before you hit enter

I actgually have contacted the manufacturer, and it's been a rather convoluted mess ... there's a chance the actual artisan who puts this together might be able to churn out an extra one to tag onto his next large order, but it'll be awhile. I'll keep you posted! icon_smile.gif

sorry..most post got deleted some how. It looks like it is made out of pvc. I would think if you took a pic to your local hardware store and go down the plumbing isle they can help you pick out everything you need. My only thought is how to make a hole in a plastic plate. I don't know if it would crack or not if you drilled a hole. Well I guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow
