CAKE SUPPORTS (for tiered cakes)

Refer to the Cake Diagram or click the link Cake Diagram for reference explaining the supports

  • Each of the tiers will have a cake board under the bottom of the tier.
  • Supports will be inside the cake tiers (with the exception of the top tier unless a heavy cake topper is used). This supports the weight for the tiers on top of the other tier. 
  • The supports will be made of straws or plates with locking columns. Plates with locking columns will look like a mini round table with legs attached. 
  • There will be a dowel rod inside the center of the cake going through all of the tiers to keep the cake vertically stable (represented in red in the diagram).
  • To remove the center dowel, gently twist back and forth and pull upwards.
  • To remove plates with locking column supports, grab the plate on each side (left and right) and gently pull upwards to remove.

Please refer to the Cake Care Instructions guide for more information. 


Cake Leftover Storage:

If you plan to keep leftover cake in the cake box that was used for delivery, place a sheet of plastic wrap against the cut portion of the cake before refrigerating to prevent it from drying out.  


wedding anniversary tier Storage:

Wedding cakes with the top tier being used for the 1st Year Anniversary tradition will receive special instructions and a complimentary container for preserving the cake properly.  Remove all non-edible decorations prior to preparing the cake for storage. To preserve freshness, it is advised to prepare the cake for storage for the anniversary on the day of the wedding and no later than the day after.  Refer to WEDDING ANNIVERSARY TIER STORAGE GUIDE for more information.
