Though I aspire to become more of a true chef in life, I am at heart a baker. I love making cupcakes, muffins, cookies, cakes, and basically anything I really should NOT be eating. Therefore, it comes as no real surprise that I have this intense desire to collect cake plates. What better way to show off a true home-baked masterpiece than on a fabulous elevated pedestal?? With so many styles out there from the modern clear glass versions to old-fashioned colored ceramic beauties, there's a cake plate for just about every person's tastes. Here are a few I'd love to start my collection off with....
A modern take on the old classic domed stand. I can just picture a pile of freshly baked blueberry muffins or a crumbly coffee cake resting underneath that beautiful lid!
Another domed one, but this one doubles as a punch bowl when you simply flip the lid... ingenious!
Why yes, these DO deserve a luscious Red Velvet cake to top them off.... how perceptive of you!
