Cake Stands! Get your Cake Stands!

So let me introduce you to Bountiful.  It's this great find in Venice, CA that is absolutely dreamy.

And when I say dreamy, I mean.. like I can only afford stuff here in my dreams. ~Burn!   Well, not like I was even looking for a $2,000 vintage French crystal chandelier.. but you know what I mean..

It really did feel like cake heaven I must say.. I wanted it all!  I also was afraid I may have to end up getting it all if I were to ever so carelessly knock something over, the whole store would go down! yikes.



Ok, well here's a glimpse into the wonders of Bountiful..

amazing, yea?

But here is where I now introduce you to Home Goods!!
24663 Crenshaw Blvd.
Torrance, CA 90505

This is one of my favorite places to visit & check in on their cake goodies!
They have great affordable stands that I think are a STEAL!

Please keep in mind a cake stand is HIGHLY recommended in my book. 
It's the pedestal of a cakely love!
Please go out and grab one!
It makes all the difference in the world to put your cake on a stand!! 
Whether from Home Goods or a place like Bountiful, a cake stand will upgrade a cake in seconds!

I live in the mountains of Colorado and trying to plan a wedding and how gorgeous is this cake stand!!

I'm a vanilla cake/frosting girl, but my fiance loves the yellow cake/choc frosting.

Love the cake with the Yorkie...we have a Morkie (Maltese/Yorkie) named Maverick and he'd love seeing himself on a cake!
