Essential Cake Stand White 25 cm

Tulip foot cake stand in eco-friendly PLA, intermediate size

The Essential Cake Stand 25 cm White is the intermediate size version of the signature Prop Options Essential Collection stand. With its 25.4 cm plate and its characteristic curved tulip foot, it is designed for medium-sized pastries: individual cakes, 4 to 6-serving layer cakes, composed entremets, or shop window pieces.

Like the entire Essential collection, it is made from eco-friendly PLA filament (bioplastic sourced from corn starch or sugarcane), a sustainable alternative to petrochemical plastic while maintaining the strength needed for professional use. Its refined matte white finish enhances all creations without causing distracting reflections.

Patissland Tip for Centering

On this 25 cm size, cake centering is visually more critical than on a large stand: a 1 or 2 cm shift is immediately noticeable. Before placing the cake, discreetly mark the center of the plate with a temporary guide. For a 20 cm diameter cake placed on a 22 cm drum, you will get an even border of about 1.5 cm all around, ideal for close-up photos.

Event Composition Tip

For a sweet table for 30 to 60 guests, the winning combination is: one 30 cm stand for the main cake, two 25 cm stands placed in a triangle on either side for secondary pieces (cupcakes in composition, signature tart, macaron tray), and several small
