Wilton Floating Tiers Cake Stand Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used Wilton's Floating Tiers Cake Stand for my brother's wedding this weekend. I LOVE the simple, discreet design, and the fool proof ease of use. The cake looked amazing. HOWEVER!!!
By the time the bride and groom were to cut the cake, we were horrified to see that all cake layers were tilting forward at an angle and about to slide right off the display plates. The stand was assembled properly and placed on a stable level table top indoors on a level concrete floor. There was no user error regarding sound location or use. I had no reason to worry that a METAL WILTON CAKE STAND would be inadequate. The only possible explanation I can offer is that this cake was triple filled (4 layers of cake and three layers of filling, for each 4" high cake), as might be expected for a wedding cake. It is clear that this stand would only be adequate for unfilled cakes with very little frosting or decoration. In 18 years I have never had that simple of a request for a wedding cake.
PLEASE MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THERE SHOULD BE A WEIGHT LIMIT FOR EACH SIZE OF CAKE DISPLAYED ON THIS STAND, both in your package instructions and on the web sight before customer purchase. I will be returning my cake stand to the store I purchased it from, as it did not function as advertised and is totally inadequate for the ongoing use I would expect for the purchase price.

Wilton How to Make Wedding Cakes Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this DVD in the store where I take the Wilton method classes. While I did find that this video had some helpful information, the vid was DATED! It looked like it was filmed in the early, and I do mean early '80's. Remember, this video serves 2 purposes: it shows the viewer different ways of building multi-level cakes, and to present Wilton's products. It would have been nice to see some of the newer products put to use to make some of the more modern cakes. However, the information provided was clear and easy to follow. The hostess demonstrated 4 methods of stacked constrution. If you do decide to buy this video, consider buying a book; Wilton, or otherwise with more modern designs.

Wilton 307-859 3-Tier Cakes N More Party Stand Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this 3 tier cake stand to present a wedding cake that had separate small, medium, and large layers to be set on the 3 platforms. The stand was affordable and looked presentable in the picture, and hence I picked it. It came with clear assembly instructions, was easy to assemble, and was very sturdy once assembled (although see below). Note that the 3 plates on the stand are clear molded plastic, not glass or thick plexiglass. Also, it's a bit hard to see from the product photo so I'll note that the 3 plates don't overlap each other above and below - they're fully offset so you can put things on them that are taller than the height between them. Overall the stand did turn out to be clean looking and presentable. For the formality of the wedding reception we draped it with white linen napkins, but I would definitely use it undraped at home for desserts or appetizers at a less formal party. My only complaint is that one of legs was missing the notch needed to stop it from slipping through the slot in the base (the bottom large silver circle you see in the product photo) that holds all 3 stands together to form a stable platform. I didn't have time to deal with it before our event so we jury-rigged it with tape and it worked great; I've since called Wilton's customer service, which was friendly and helpful, and they're sending a replacement leg now, no questions asked. So if you're looking for a nice-looking, sturdy, inexpensive way to present desserts or other things I definitely recommend this product.

Wilton Tailored Tiers Cake Display Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is easy to put together and looks great. Just as pictured. I used it for my parents 50th Anniversary cake. I covered each layer in white fondant and put three colors of pink fondant roses around each layer. I then wrapped the separator with wide gold ribbon and used two straight pins to stick it to the foam. It looked great!

This set of display tools will present your three-tiered special occasion cake with a look of textured elegance. The set includes two 2-inch-high foam separators wrapped in shimmering white satin brocade, one approximately 4 inches across and the other 7 inches. For a personalized touch, cover each of the separators with the set's acetate photo wraps, and insert cherished photos of the bride and groom for a wedding cake, of the wedding itself for an anniversary cake, or of the proud parents-to-be for a baby shower cake. The acetate wraps can also hold handcrafted paper or a coordinating fabric. The set also comes with four smooth-edged separator plates to hold each tiered cake layer. Put together, the display harmonizes beautifully with any floral decoration. The 41/4-inch separator holds cakes up to 6 inches in diameter when used with the 8-inch top plate, while the 71/4-inch separator holds cakes up to 10 inches in diameter when used with the 12-inch top plate. The set also includes a 6-inch and an additional 8-inch separator plate.
