When I was in LA last weekend, I wandered into a shop on Abbot Kinney that had at least a hundred cake pedestals in a variety of sizes. My heart leapt at the sight! I was going to buy at least 5 of them. And then I saw the prices tags.
The smallest cake pedestal was 8" and cost $68. The pastry gig doesn't pay that well and there is no way I can afford a $68 cake stand.
Logging onto one of my favorite websites (and stores), Anthropologie, I found a cake stand that is cute, has a cover and fits my budget. $24? I'm sold!
