The moment the cake comes out is the moment everyone reaches for their phone. This stand makes sure it's worth photographing.

The Happy Birthday Cake Stand is the unmistakable one. It says the occasion outright, so nobody has to infer anything from a shape. That makes it the natural pick for kids' parties, family birthdays and bakery counters, where the cake needs to read as a birthday cake the second it appears.

It's our signature stand and the most detailed of the four, assembling from four pieces rather than three for a fuller design. At 23 cm tall it lifts the cake above the clutter of plates and glasses. It arrives flat and goes together in seconds with no tools and no glue. When the party's over it folds back down and slides into a cupboard instead of taking up a shelf all year.
