Frosting cakes is easy because the top of the cake stand has a low-profile lip. But the original version, hand-molded in Ohio, is timeless, with a solid base that makes this tall and elegant cake stand surprisingly stable. The Mosser glass cake plate has been imitated and knocked off countless times. Whether you're looking for a basic turntable stand or an heirloom for generations, we found that the best cake stands blend design, performance, durability, and overall value. Then, we tested our list of cake stands by frosting cakes and serving them up to see if the cake stands stood up to real-life use. We searched for the most popular brands and asked pastry chefs, bakers, and food writers if they had a favorite cake stand in their homes. Others just look poorly manufactured or lack aesthetics. Some are unstable and will fall over if you barely touch them. Not all cake stands are made the same, however. Plus, when they aren’t functioning as a display for your home baking, you can use them as a centerpiece or display piece by swapping cake for a bowl of fruit, candles, or other knickknacks.
And they’re not just for cakes-nearly any dessert or baked good, whether cookies, brownies, cupcakes, muffins, or even loaves of bread, will look more elegant and potentially dramatic if presented on a cake stand. It’s the sort of thing that literally (and figuratively) elevates a cake from good to great and from great to magnificent. Every home baker needs a great cake stand in their kitchen.
