Do you dabble in baking? I get you: Sometimes you bring a fresh strawberry pie for a potluck picnic in the park, or sometimes you’re the friend that gets asked to make a small wedding cake. Not only is it flattering, but you are so ready to try gum paste flowers for the first time. The trouble is, how do you properly support and transport these precious, delicate items when you don’t really do it all the time? Cake supply stores are not always local, and ordering one usually means you’ll need room to store the other 149 cake boxes you were required to buy.
For one-off cake supply needs, ask your supermarket’s bakery. They might be able to give you a 9-inch cardboard cake circle, a proper pie box, or even a couple disposable plastic piping bags for making frosting flowers. I’ve gotten single cake boards and boxes for free, and sometimes the bakery will even have a SKU code so you can pay for it at the register (usually for 50 cents or a dollar). Word to the wise: Do not ask for any frosting piping tips, as these are not single-use tools and are usually personal to cake decorators.
