cake dummies

Cake blanks. That is what I called them. Those darn styrofoam things that are the shape and size of a cake. Where could I find them? The craft store was a thought, but no. They had one inch high round ones but to make 4 inches would cost 20 dollars or more. Is that worth having a styrofoam layer when a cake is way less? And yet I know that bakeries use them. I have a wedding coming up and they want it all on styrofoam! What was I going to do?
Thankfully there is this wonderful thing called google. Would you guess what I found out, they are more commonly called... hint look at the title of this post :) Thats right! Cake dummies. What a name :) (as long as that isnt what people call me)
I had a crazy time sifting though all the sites to find the best price. I think I found it today. http://www.dallas-foam.com/store/cakedummies.html
I can order on line and they only have a 10 dollar minimum order! the shiping is calculated differently cause of how big some of them get. They also do other things besides cake dummies so if anyone wants to order something from them and it isnt enough to make it worth the shipping let me know and maybe I will need something and we can go in together :)
Anyway I am stoked to find a place that has what I need and I can order online, I just had to share my good news.
