Food stand

[shivvy]

I saw this stand in Lakeland and fancy it but don't fancy paying 20 quid for it - it's plastic!!

I think it would be useful on a table to stack food instead of cluttering up the table with lots of different plates (when doing a range of salads and nibbles etc).
Most that I have seen are cake stands and are therefore very ornate or quite small. That isn't what I'm after.

Has anyone come across anything similar to the lakeland one?

Thanks.

I have a 6 tier one, perspex, from ebay, paid about £20 for it, it's great for nibbles or cupcakes!..........easy to erect, looks great, have a look there!...........

As always, ebay is a good bet. If you have the time to plough through the thousands of cake stand for sales. There are loads of buy it nows from various suppliers as well as auction items. Good luck.

There are a few - different styles - on eBay at the moment, although some are similar prices to the Lakeland one. It's not an unreasonable price, IMO.

Thank you everyone.

I had already done a search on the usual sites you suggest (amazon, ebay etc) and they certainly do have mountains of them!

I'm always worried that those things will get knocked over.

Hi Shivvy,
I've just bought a cake stand similar to this one, plain white, two tier from Aldi . This one is the same price. http://www.wilkinsonp...wordsearch=cake+stand

Thanks again everyone for your suggestions.

There are loads of sites with multi-tier cake stands for sale so you shouldn't really have too much trouble finding one at a decent price. There's quite a large selection at http://www.3tiercakestand.co.uk/ from dozens of different Uk stores.
