Know before you buy
Yes, this cake stand is microwave safe, making it convenient if you need to warm up a dessert or melt a glaze directly on the stand.
The stand is dishwasher safe, allowing for easy cleanup. However, because it features delicate hand-painted details, hand washing with a soft cloth is recommended to preserve the finish over time.
The stand measures approximately 37 cm (14.5 inches) in width and 10.97 cm (4.33 inches) in height, providing a generous surface area for standard-sized cakes and pastries.
Because each piece in the Maria Flor collection is hand-painted, there may be slight variations in the floral details. This artisanal process ensures that every cake stand is unique.
This piece is designed specifically for indoor use. While it is made of durable earthenware, it is best kept in a controlled indoor environment to protect the hand-painted finish from harsh weather conditions.
