:confused: hiya all
thought this might be the best place to ask

I am wanting one of those caske stands, you know the ones on a "stick" with a dome on top?

Does anyone know where you can get these- cheap? Id like to get one for my mates Xmas- but alas having no joy in finding them. I saw one in wilkos for a tenner but it was only the stand, no dome.

Anyone have any ideas? :confused:

Cheers :)

    I would love an old fashioned 2 tier cake stand (or 3 tiers!) and I am keeping a look out at second hand shops unless anyone has seen one somewhere else?? I don't need a dome!

    I have seen the one at Lakeland also Lynzpower and ones without stands in Tupperware.

    Im sure Ikea was selling a glass one recently that was rather pretty, although I could be wrong!

    If you turn a smallish bowl upside down and then place a large plate on top it creates an instant cake stand.

    not as glam as a proper shop bought one but creates the effect at short notice!
