Crystal cake stands are approximately 6” tall with rows upon rows of connected crystals. Each crystal connects via a small metal hoop. If your cake stand gets damaged during an event it’s easy to patch up.

The most common stands are coated in gold or silver metal with clear acrylic crystals. Crystal cake stands are perfect to use with LED lighting underneath to add a touch of drama to your table. Using LED to light up your tablescape is a great glass cake stand decor idea.

We carry four sizes of cake stands so you can find the perfect dimensions you need: 14” round, 18” round, 14” square, 18” square. Each crystal cake stand is able to hold approximately 30 pounds, so they’re as versatile as they are dependable! Acrylic crystal cake stands have some advantages over true glass stands as they’re easier to mend, lighter to carry, and are easily obtainable.

How is a Crystal Cake Stand Used?

Crystal cake stands have become very popular as a wedding and event decoration. They’re often placed at dessert or cake tables to hold centerpieces for an overall cohesive look. They’re the perfect platform to draw attention to the extra elements of your wedding while not overshadowing them. Crystal cake stands are used for a number of purposes depending on the theme and overall decor of the wedding.

Ultimately, how they’re used is the personal preference of the guest of honor or event stylist working on the party. In our mock-up above we placed our 14” round gold crystal cake stand front and center. This helps show off the main dessert and create a statement.
