It's never "just cake!"
You may get a cake for $way to little but you won't get this cake!

I don't want to deal with picking them up or chasing people down to bring it back to me.
That really used to be a PAIN! I revised my Policies & Procedures Contract. Now, the bride is personally responsible for ensuring the stand is returned NO LATER than 12 pm the Wed. following her wedding. I even spell out that if she sends it with anyone else including the caterer she is the one ultimately responsible. I also write in RED BOLD "Cake stand must be returned by __________" on the cake contract. Since those changes, I have not had a problem.

This year with the increase in rustic chic weddings (burlap and mason jars everywhere) I had a neighbor cut three rounds of cedar about 12" in diameter and in various heights (5" to 8" tall). On them I put 16" pine rounds bought from Lowes. I stained and varnished the rounds in walnut, cedar and pale gray. They have been the stands of choice this summer.
I live in a small community where everyone knows each other so I can trust that they are returned promptly and I've never been disappointed. I include them in the cost of the wedding cake.

I do a lot of 6/10 combos and most of the time, due to the design, put my cake on a 14" drum. Hobby Lobby has a nice 14" silver round plateau in their wedding section...with my 40% off coupon I got it for 30ish dollars. That is a good inexpensive one to start out with.

Her own cake business. She has a boat load of boards, and Wilton cake rounds as well as pillars for sale. Does anyone even use the pillars anymore? I personally don't like the looks of them and don't see many being used in the current cakes. Would they be a good investment for me or should I pass on them as an investment for a possible cake business in the future?

I am just starting out in the hobby. I have been decorating cakes for a local Dairy Queen. Soooooo, my question is, I know a local lady that is retiring from
Her own cake business. She has a boat load of boards, and Wilton cake rounds as well as pillars for sale. Does anyone even use the pillars anymore?

I get a request for pillars ever so often, but not many. I think I did 3 cakes last year using them, and one was for a vow renewal and they wanted to replicate their original wedding cake.
I have a whole collection of cake plates, stands, plateaus and cupcake trees that I have purchased and rent out. The plateaus were all bought from homesense at different times, and the cake stands are a mixture of antique stores and homesense. The cupcake trees I had made.
I require a deposit for each one, and they have 2 days to have them returned to me, they are $20 a day for each day late, until they either return it or the full deposit amount has been used.
I've never had anyone more than 1 day late.
