Description
The Babirik Cake Stand is a three-tier stand in aluminium with a bright chrome colour. It is built around a single central rod that runs from a flared pedestal base to a round ball finial at the top. Its three round tiers step down in size from the largest at the base to the smallest at the top, and each one has a raised rim so cakes and pastries sit neatly in place. It stands 51cm tall and measures 29.5cm in diameter at its widest, which gives you height in the middle of a table without taking over the surface.
This is a stand for occasions when the food deserves to be seen: afternoon tea with sandwiches, scones and small cakes, a birthday spread, a dessert table at a wedding or a Sunday gathering with friends. Stacking food upwards frees up space on the table for plates, cups and a teapot, and three tiers let you keep sweet and savoury apart. Between uses it makes a handsome display piece on a kitchen island, a sideboard or a dresser, holding fruit, wrapped sweets or small decorative pieces. We think it suits anyone who hosts often and wants a centrepiece with a little height.
Aluminium is a light metal that does not rust, which suits something handled and carried as often as a cake stand. Even so, at 2.5KG this one has a reassuring weight in the hand, and the flared pedestal base lifts the bottom tier clear of the tablecloth. The ball finial gives you a natural grip when you move it, though we would support the bottom tier as well once it carries a full spread. The chrome colour catches daylight and candlelight, so it looks bright on a dressed table. As a practical note, measure the shelf or cupboard where you plan to keep it, because at 51cm tall it needs more headroom than most serveware.
