Patissland Tip for Assembly
Insert the decorative content before placing the upper cake tier. Always position a rigid cake drum between each tier and the acrylic tier to distribute weight and protect the surface. For wedding cakes with 4 tiers or more, use vertical support rods that pass through the tiers and rest on the lower drum, ensuring the structural stability of the assembled cake.
Tip for Fairy Lights
Choose battery-operated LED fairy light garlands (never mains-powered near a cake), with fine copper wire for a "firefly" effect. Insert them in a spiral inside the acrylic tier before placing the upper tier, then hide the battery pack in the base decoration. Guaranteed effect in reception photos with dim lighting.
Care and Storage
Hand wash with lukewarm water and a little mild soap, dry with a lint-free microfiber cloth to avoid scratches. Do not put in the dishwasher. Avoid any contact with solvents like alcohol, acetone, or harsh cleaning products that crack acrylic. Store in a protective cover or original packaging between events.
