Description

This unusual cake stand is hand carved from slices of teak root to create a striking, natural plinth for cakes and desserts. The dense grain and organic form of the root make each piece distinctive, ideal for anyone who prefers a rustic or sculptural table centrepiece.

Because every stand is handmade, colours, texture and exact shape will vary between pieces. The unique character of the root means all sizes and weights are approximate, so your item will be one of a kind rather than a factory-identical copy.

The substantial solid-wood construction gives the stand stability for showing off homemade cakes and other displays. Its commanding height and broad circular top create a dramatic presentation on a dining table, buffet or cake table.

This is a decorative, functional item made from natural teak root. Small natural cracks, knots and variations are part of the aesthetic and should be expected rather than treated as defects.

  • Distinctive hand-carved teak root: each stand is a unique piece of furniture with natural grain and irregular contours that create an eye-catching centrepiece.
  • Solid wood build for stability: the dense root timber provides a sturdy platform for cakes and displays while adding warm, organic texture to your setting.
  • Large round top and tall profile: a 40cm diameter top with a 60cm height lifts cakes into view for impressive presentation at parties and celebrations.
  • Natural variations celebrated: small knots, fissures and colour differences are inherent to root timber and enhance the rustic, artisanal character.
  • Versatile decorative use: primarily designed for cakes and desserts but equally effective as a sculptural display plinth for seasonal styling or centrepieces.
  • Easy to integrate: the neutral wood tones and natural finish complement both contemporary and traditional table settings.

FAQs

How should I clean my teak root cake stand after use?

Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove crumbs and spills, then dry immediately with a clean towel. For sticky residues use a mild, soapy water solution applied sparingly, then rinse and dry straight away. Avoid soaking the wood or using abrasive scourers or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the surface and open up natural fissures.

Can I place warm or slightly hot dishes directly on the teak root surface?

Avoid placing very hot pans or oven trays directly onto the wood. Prolonged exposure to heat can dry and stress the timber, causing cracks or discolouration. Use a heat-resistant mat, trivet or a food-safe barrier between hot cookware and the stand to protect the wood and prolong its life.

How do I maintain the appearance and longevity of the teak root wood?

To keep the wood looking its best, periodically wipe with a dry cloth and treat lightly with a food-safe oil (such as mineral oil) if the surface appears dry. Apply oil sparingly, allow it to absorb, then wipe off any excess. This helps maintain moisture balance in the timber and reduces the risk of surface splitting while preserving its natural look.
