Today we have been busy drilling and fixing plates to make 2 and 3 tier plate stands. All the plates are preloved, some stands are made with matching sets other mix and match. We are careful to call them plate stands and not cake stands as they can be used for so much more than just cake.
Mini stands are perfect for a dozen eggs and make an unusual feature in your kitchen.
Larger stands are perfect for keeping your fruit fresh, multiple layers avoid softer fruit from becoming squashed.
A classic 2 tier is perfect for serving cheese and crackers as well as sandwiches and cakes.
Mini stands are great for antipasti as well as after dinner chocolates.
Not forgetting the traditional afternoon tea or high tea.
However you decide to use them is doesn't matter so long as they are used and not stored away in the back of the cupboard.
