 Huge but heavy | |
| This handsome, simple stand is (just) big enough to hold a three-layer nine-inch cake with a lot of frosting and coconut on it. I haven't tried it as a punch-bowl yet, but I appreciate the ingeniousness of the design. It would be a bargain at twice the price. I give it four stars instead of five because the cover really is amazingly heavy--so heavy that I find it a bit difficult to hold. And carrying the whole stand on the subway with a three-layer cake on it, trying to keep it level? Phew, what a workout! In fairness, it's clearly not meant to be used to transport cakes. It's built to anchor your cake or punch-type beverage to the earth, a task it accomplishes very well. | |
 Beautiful, sturdy, 2 uses in one | |
| I just received my cakestand and I love it. I ordered it to use for my small wedding cake coming up on 9/6. The first one they sent me arrived shattered, but they quickly replaced it and it arrived faster & better-packaged than the first one. This simple style is still very attractive, and the glass is nice and heavy. And the price was VERY affordable!! I am sure I will get years and years of use out of this piece. Thanks Amazon! | |
| Wonderful cake stand | |
| I've had this cake stand for about 2 years now and I have used it many times. It still looks great and it survived my male roommate from my last year of college (many other things didn't). I also found this to be very useful recently when I was making a huge batch of cookies for an office party. None of my mixing bowls were big enough, but this (turned to the punch bowl side) was perfect. Thanks Target! |
