Sketch for my display cake. I made this in paint. I wanted to try a few new things and this is what I came up with please let me know what you think. When I am done with the display I will upload it for a comparison TFL!!
Looks great. Looking forward to seeing the real thing. If you don't mind me asking, how would you secure the styro spacers? Or do you simply just balance everything? I've always wanted to know how these were done. Thanks. :-)
I haven't got that far yet lol I Ed thinking of doing a pipe or something fitted to a bored and sliding it all down the pipe or rod that I fine thin enough. Any suggestions would be great!
Looks simple enough to balance the styrofoam on cake boards cut to the same round and simply insert your support into the cake for supporting the styrofoam as you would if it were cake on cardboard rounds.. That's how I would support it
I was thinking maybe that a acrylic cupcake tower would work. I've been toying with trying something like this using that idea or concept. What do you think?
If it's styrofoam dummies, besides the hot glue, I'd probably put a 1/2" dowel through it because the spacers are so much smaller than the tiers. If this is using cake, I'd probably use some thing thicker and stronger than a dowel (3/4"-1" PVC?) secured to the board and then thread the tiers and spaces down over it. Maybe use RI to secure the spacers to the bottom of each tier above it?
that a good idea! Do you have any advise on how to do the teirs that sit on the black spavers? jA cake circle wouldnt work so how would I make itt sturdy?
