Hi!
Was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a turntable for a 3-tier cake? Would appreciate any help!
I saw one on Ebay but it ships from Hong Kong and would arrive here in March, but I need it in 2 weeks!
Also, does anyone know how much the weight would be of a 3-tier cake (6"/8"/10") Chocolate cake filled with buttercream and some small decorations.
Trying to see what weight would be okay to spin on a turntable. Thank you so much!
AAre you looking for a turn table or a cake stand? Not an expert in tired cakes, but if I have more than one tire, I ice them individually on a turn table first and THEN stack them on a cake stand or board. Just trying to figure out what your plan is...
Sorry...Should've explained it better! Looking for a motorized (electric or battery-operated) cake stand so I can make the cake rotate.
I've seen the Karousel one but it's expensive!!!
I just found one on Amazon, for displaying model cars, but trying to figure out how many lbs a 6/8/10 cake would be, so I can see if it'll fit on that?
Model cars are very light weight, no where near the weight of a cake. It's the motor that determines the spinning speed. Just because the stand can support the weight of a cake 45+lbs, doesn't mean the motor can handle turning it.
I found this on another bakery's website about what their cakes weigh: http://www.mayfairbakery.com/products/3-cakes/16-servings-chart I'm not sure if it's average or not, but it's a place to start.
Anything that will be able to rotate a 3 tier cake (weight!) will be expensive. Some larger art pieces have display turntables, and that may be another source. But I bet it will still be expensive.
Hope it works out for you. Also, did you see that this one rotates very slowly, only 1 RPM (revolution per minute). Just keep that in mind as you select. Good Luck!
