Delivery
Options
I
enjoy making wedding and specialty cakes for people but there are times that
I have to decline due to distance or scheduling conflicts with the delivery.
In most cases with a little planning I can make a cake that can be delivered
and set up by you. Below are some pictures of cakes made in such a way that
anyone can transport and setup. As a side benefit, you also save my delivery
charges.
As
you can see, each of these cakes have their tiers separated by columns. Each
tier of cake will be placed in a separate box for delivery. Once you reach the
site of your reception, all you have to do is un-box each tier and stack each
layer on top of the other. At the bottom of this page I will show you how to
assemble one of these cakes.
In
the picture on the left you see the bottom tier of a stacked cake along with
the hardware used to support the other tiers of cake. The four columns are pushed
into the cake (see below picture). The round plate you see is the under side
of a support plate that will be affixed to the bottom of the second tier cake.
Notice the four feet in the plate that will fit into the top of the columns.
The
Picture on the right shows the columns of each lower tier inserted into the
feet of the plate above. This cake was designed with a 1" separation between
layers which is large enough to place small flowers for added decorations. A
separation of 3" is possible for larger design elements.
