Giveaway by Raise the Cake!
This is a really fun giveaway and one that we’ve never done before…a custom cake stand! Raise the Cake recently launched their adorable line of fabric covered stands, along with a couture line where you can design your own to perfectly suit your wedding style. And they are selling like hot cakes.
Let’s face it…the cake takes center stage most of the time. I actually decked mine out with edible glitter and put it right on the dance floor where everyone could drool over it. It’s the main event and one that, I hate to say, guests often love just as much as the wedding itself!
So, Raise the Cake is gifting one lucky reader one of their stands. To enter, just pick your favorite from their collection by leaving a comment right here. We’ll choose a random winner on Friday. Easy as pie…or rather cake!
I'd absolutely love to win the aqua Cupcake Stand. :)
We just decided on 3 different flavors of cupcakes for our wedding and I'd love a beautiful way to display them.
I love the Big Bling! Collection! So adorable and would match well with the bouquets that will have beautiful, vintage brooches attached to the wrapping ribbon. :)
I love the feather collection. So whimsical and soft. Gorgeous!
My favorite is The Antoina Collection ... the white with the rhinestone bling. Stunning.
I love the Linda collection! My colors are black, green and silver - so it is a perfect way to add some silver. Not to mention it totally pops and is a little different than your average cake stand. It would truly make the cake take center stage!
My favorite is the Big Bling Collection. Just the little bit of sparkle from the brooch is classy and elegant. I would love the white and silver color or maybe instead of the silver ribbon, a blue ribbon to match my colors! What a beautiful idea!
The big bling collection is so glam and fabulous. LOVE it!
How fantastic! The beautiful cupcake stand is my favorite! All of the stands are gorgeous but I plan on having cupcakes at our wedding :). Now, deciding on the perfect shade of pink to match the overall hue at the reception is the more difficult decision! Perhaps if I win, I'll choose a color then. Thanks SMP!
The classic whites collection is classy without being too formal, and the fact that you can mix and match your ribbon colour and your bling makes it even better! the rose rhinestore is my fav!
I would love the Ivory/Pearl Antonia Collection.
Not only would I use it in my wedding, but as a baked treat stand for home parties! What a way to exhibit delicious food with a deliciously beautiful stand!
I would love the Bows and Bling! stand in silver with the soft pink ribbon. It would be the perfect touch of glam for our otherwise understated beach/garden party wedding. These are really beautiful!!
I LOVE the classic colors collection, Merlot satin ! It"s the perfect final touch for our cake table, which we try to keep as simple as possible without loosing the elegance!
I love the Linda collection in Gold! Beautiful! :)
I love the ivory cupcake stand! We have decided to do cupcakes instead of the traditional wedding cake. I have been looking for a gorgeous way to display our personalized cupcakes! :)
I love the cupcake stand - very elegant! It would be perfect in deep pink for my October wedding in Palm Springs!
The Bows and Bling is just so brilliant! I love that it compliments the cake rather than takes away.
It has to be a cupcake stand! We are not doing cake and probably not even cupcakes, but are going with lots of homemade cookies. I have the best family ever!
Its so hard to choose, all of them are so pretty! I like the Amber and Antoina collection!!
I am in love with the pink/pearl from the Antoina Collection. If only I could fit it into my budget it would make the perfect addition to my cake. I adore the look of the pearls on the beautiful material; the stand is elegant with an antique feel.
the feathers collection (white/white) is beautiful! love cakes.
I LOVE THE ORANGE COVER STAND AND THE GLAM MAKES IT MORE BEAUTIFUL. THE ORANGE MATCHES MY COLOR PEFERCT.
I love the Lucky Butterfly collection!
If I do not win, I'm definitely going to purchase 'The Linda Collection' in silver. This is a fabulous business idea.
I love, love, LOVE the look of the feathers collection! So romantic and floaty. I like the white/white, but also happen to think that it would look lovely in grey/white (two of my wedding colors!).
Woooo yes please! One of the designs with a wide ribbon and a vintage style brooch would be pertectomundo for our home made lace design cake. Jules x
I love the cupcake stand - that is exactly how I envision it at our wedding!
Love the feathers collection...it would go perfectly with our peacock cake designed by the fabulous Cake Coquette!
I would love to win a cake stand from the Linda Collection. Like most brides, I have been planning every last detail with very little to NO say from my fiance. From the beginning he said it was my day to be as creative as possible and he preferred to take a back seat on the decision making process. We are from San Diego and getting married in Oahu. My fiance is a DIE HARD Charger fan and unfortunately for him, we will be missing two football games for our time spent in Hawaii. As a nice surprise, I have hired Cake Lava to design a custom wedding cake that is a full blown Charger theme! The cake is head to toe Charger designs and my fiance is going to be thrilled! I want the cake to be the highlight of the evening and the Gold Linda Collection cake stand will give me the sparkle I love with the elegant spunkiness that Cake Lava is going to create. I think he will fall in love with me all over again! Please pick me!
I was admiring these the other day and absolutely love The Holly Collection. These colors are perfect for our Spring wedding and are the accent colors of the wedding!! What a creative collection and idea.
What a wonderful idea-- my wedding cake needs to stand tall and proud! My fave is the Classic Colors collection in Lavender Satin/Eggplant Ribbon/Antique Bling! The colors match my theme perfectly-- so excited by this amazing giveaway-- thanks SMP and Raise the Cake!
Antoina!
The ivory/silver Cupcake Stand Collection is ideal for highlighting the lovely fruit tarts we are offering instead of cake or cupcakes. The colors of the fruit would really stand out against the beautiful fabric. What a brilliant display!
ooh! yay, we're doing cupcakes and have been racking our brains to come up with something to put them on... so we'd definitely pick something from the Cupcake Stand collection if we won! we've got 30+ days to figure this one out... it would be great to cross this off the list and come in under budget!
Wow, the cake stands are awesome! We're having a dessert table rather than a cake and I would LOVE to add a beautiful cupcake stand to the layout! The restaurant specializes in a chocolate phyllo dessert (my all-time favorite dessert) and this cupcake stand would be a unique touch to our reception.
Ooh! What a great giveaway! I must say, I'm in love with "The Bows and Bling! Collection". Soooooo pretty!
At our wedding, we want to do a treat that has very special meaning to us. We're planning to have cupcake cones for our guests -- this is a delicious dessert that my mother made and brought to school for me to share with my classmates each year while I was growing up. They were always a hit. Cupcake cones are similar to cupcakes except that you bake each one in an ice cream cone, instead of a wrapper. The cone gets super soft and tasty while it bakes and the treat is easy to hold -- plus you save paper!
Today, all my friends count on me to bring these treats to every celebration I attend and they've all come to love them over the years. In fact, many of them now also bake them too. I've had so much fun spreading the tradition over the years.
We haven't been able to figure out how to display our special cupcake cones at the wedding because most cupcake display stands have tiers that are too short for the additional height the cone takes. But the Cupcake Stand shown here looks like it would be just perfect! If we were picked as the lucky winners, Dave and I would LOVE a cupcake stand with baby pink fabric and a chocolate colored ribbon. Thanks so much for doing this give-away, SMP!
The cupcake stand is perfect, and even the right color blue for my wedding!
Wow! There's so many beautiful stands- it's hard to choose! We have selected a three tiered damask inspired wedding cake to compliment the elegant feel of our evening wedding. We have a small guest list- so a very large cake is not needed, but since the cake will be in the center of the great room where most of the reception will take place- one of the classic color collection stands would be a much needed, and beautiful addition that would help the cake shine in the large room! Thank you SMP and Raise the Cake for this fun giveway! I am crossing my fingers!!! :)
I'm loving the big bling in gold! Keeping my fingers crossed until Friday!!!
I love the Cupcake Stand Collection! Cupcakes are so much fun and they would look great on a beautiful stand from Raise the Cake!
I LOVE the linda collection--modern and sophisticated. Exactly the look we are going for! Thank you!
I have been searching for the perfect cake stand. Raise the cake is what I been searching for. My favorite collection is the The Classic Whites Collection with adding the color Red.. This would be perfect!!!!!
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET THEM EAT CAKE (off of a beautiful cake stand, that is! :))
These are so glamarous. What a delight -- eek!!!
I'm getting married in just 60 days and have been looking for something just like this. And was actually going to have my FMIL (Future-Mother-In-Law) make me a stand. But taking another 'to-do' off of her list would be just brilliant. I am loving the Sassy bride. In a black and white color, with a chartruse green silk ribbon in the background. What a way to highlight our dessert bar of cupcakes, a mini-wedding cake, shortbread and chocolate ganuche cookies!! YUM YUM YUM!!!
Thanks for this amazing giveaway -- I look forward to hearing more!!! Woohooo!!
The Amber Collection with the pink and orange is one of the cutest cake stands i've ever seen! We're using green, pink, and orange and it's so hard to find colors combined. Our cake is going to be solid green so how perfect does this stand fit in!!
I love the Tandori collection- our wedding colors are red and orange. We are also planning to have some henna designs on the cake and this would accent the cake beautifully. The pieces are all gorgeous!
I love, love, love the Classic Whites Collection with the green! I love clean lines, and that is very classic. :) I'm getting married a year from now, and am leaning towards a simplistic garden wedding!
Are you serious?!?! How did I NOT KNOW I needed something so fabulous... these are seriously beautiful!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the seaside collection... we are getting married in the mountains, so it doesn't exactly fit, but they are dreamy! I also ADORE many from their gallery... do I have to pick now?? I am squeezing my crossed fingers so tightly for this one!! Our traditional Danish Cake would look gorgeous perched atop one of these works of art!! Thanks for hosting, as always :)
The Amber Collection is quite lovely. I love the simple but rich colors. The flowers are so delicate. My fiancee and I are doing the entire wedding ourselves and we just picked out our wedding cake. I truly believe one of these beautiful pieces would compliment our cake in a very unique way.
The aqua cupcake stand would work best for my wedding... but I'd love to splurge and get the silver stand from the Linda collection. How fun! Thank you for the giveaway.
i adore the cupcake stand collection in apple green. perfect for fun, more casual cupcake wedding :)
I love the Linda collection.... it's kind of like a sophisticated polka dot design!
Love love them...especially the Amber Collection one in sage green or the Classic White with the aqua ribbon.
OMG!!! LOVE and NEED ONE!!!! As of now I'm just borrowing one from the hotel bc getting anything extra is out of our budget. Not only is this necessary but it's above and beyond what we would need - so gorgeous!!!
Another great giveaway! The Amber collection in Deep Sage Green would be the perfect accent to our nature themed decor and very simple cake at our outdoor wedding in Maine! Beautiful pieces, Raise the Cake!
These are absolutely gorgeous. I was thinking of using the silver cake stand, but after seeing these I will have to rethink my decision.
Ooh, a chocolate stand with pink ribbon would be just lovely. What a lovely giveaway!
Just what I need, I love the Ivory and Pearl from the Antonia Collection.
I love hot pink, and I love paisley prints....so, The Sassy Bride collection is just perfect! I love the combination of curving lines and rhinestone bling, and look how much cuter even that little cake looks! It's be great for many sizes.
Love the Amber Collection!! The sage green stand is gorgeous!
Great giveaway. I love the Elegance collection.
I didn't think a cake stand would be able to set up the mood for the entire party! But I'm sure this will be: the hot pink from FIESTA collection. Just lovely!
The Sassy Bride collection makes the cake POP! Plus, what bride wouldn't love using the word Sassy when talking about her cake!?
I'm a girlie girl down to the core and love the Big Bling collection. What a perfect touch for my wedding this would be!
I love the Amber collection in black and white! It will match my black and white dress!
The Linda collections is by far my favorite. It gives an updated and non-traditional look to the same old boring cake stand that has been seen at weddings for decades! Thank goodness for Raise The Cake and their creativeness behind all the cakestands!
I love the Big Bling collection..especially in the orange color. They are fabulous, I would LOVE to have one as our focal point at the wedding!!
I love love love these! The cupcake stand in mocha with chocolate brown ribbon would be adorable. Much better than my current plan which involves a hot glue gun, cardboard stand and patterned paper - I can already tell it's going to be a disaster. This company is so needed!
I love Antonia. It matches the detail on my dress!! It also doesn't hurt that it is the name of one of the contestants of my favorite show...top chef. :)
I too love the sage green stand in the Amber Collection. It would go great with my colors!
WOW gorgeous idea!! I would choose the Classic Colors Collection in my color of burgundy to go with the burgundy flowers we will have on our cake and our rhinestone topper!
love em! especially the cupcake stand in mocha!
The beautiful cupcake stand collection!!! What a great idea this is!
Love the classic whites collection with the light aqua ribbon :) The green and aqua enamel flower to go with is really cute. Thanks for hosting such a fun giveaway!
I love the big bling in orange. It is beautiful!
These are so unique. What great design ideas. I have to say my favorite is the orange and blue paisley print with blue ribbon that is in the gallery. I've been searching everywhere for color concept ideas for our March wedding, and I'm going to use this in my inspiration board! Love it!
I just adore The Big Bling! Collection! Our wedding colors are gold and ivory and that would go along perfectly! So incredibly cute!
I looove the The Antoina Collection! It's got a vintage look! I'm planning on having a nice, simple cake and this would be the perfect way to dress it up, just a bit, and would fit the theme perfectly! :)
Wow! These are all beautiful. I would have to say the Elegance Collection in silver&silver would fit my day perfectly. The look to my wedding is simple-elegance, and this is it!
I like the Elegance Collection in the white with the silver bling. Simple and elegant!
Oh my, these are gorgeous. We're having a destination wedding and with the smaller guest list I've been worried that a two tier cake might be easily missed. These cake stands seem like the answer to all of my problems; who could ignore a cake on such a beautiful stand! The Linda in silver not only shares its name with my fiances favorite aunt, but also will match the twinkling lights that are the focus of our reception.
I love the cupcake collection. We need a perfect stand to hold our cupcakes that we're getting from the Homemade Ice Cream and Pie Kitchen in Louisville, KY....that's where my soon-to-be proposed. :) We looove our sweets!
These are stunning! I would have never thought of something like this being so important and adding so much to the cake! We LOVE LOVE LOVE the Antonia Collection in Ivory. GORGEOUS!!!
WOW!!! So difficult to choose a favorite....I am in LOVE with the Feathers Collection......especially since my dress is feathery like that.....we just upped our date to September 26, 2009!!! Booked the venue today!!! A gorgeous cake stand will help the cake not get lost!! What a fabulous giveaway!
I love the Amber and Feathers collections! Either would go well with the floral pattern my fiance designed for our cake. Our cake is black fondant with an ivory diecut fondant floral pattern. An ivory version of either would be amazing!!
Love the Elegance collection!
I absolutely love the classic whites collection! With the red ribbon it would look so simple yet extremely elegant. I hadn't put much thought into a cake stand, but now I'll have to! :)
I love the Elegance Collection! It will definitely add an elegant touch on my simple homey wedding.
This is going to sound so boring but I have been looking EVERYwhere for a dang cupcake tower that didn't look like a third grader's birthday party. I lovelovelove the one in their cupcake collection! This would be a huge relief and blessing to win one of these. An ivory stand with chocolate ribbon would fit perfect with our vintage theme. Thanks so much for an awesome giveaway.
I love so many of these! I think I would choose the cupcake collectin with apple green fabric and a hot pink ribbon!
The Elegance collection is to die for! I can imagine the photos with my silk shantung gown coordinating perfectly with the beautiful cake stand with just the right touch of bling!
LOVE it! Although I'm partial to anything cupcake, my favorite of the collection is the "lucky butterfly." Tactile, soft, bright -- very enticing -- just what every cake stand needs to be! I think this design in particular brings your focus to and compliments the cake (what else should a great cake stand to do?!)
I HEART these cake stands!! I especially love the BIG BLING collection, so classically beautiful!
LOVE the bows and bling collection! :)
I love the Antonia Collection. We are planning on doing a cake buffet so this would definitely make the real wedding cake POP! Thanks for the chance!
Such a chic and finished look, exactly what I'm going for! The Linda collection is so much fun and very original. Just looking at it makes me so excited for my day!!
Loving the rhinestone collection! sleek and can go with any color theme really...
What a perfect idea! Just Fabulous!! I am in love with the Antoina cake stand! What a perfect and elegant way to make a pretty cake look GEORGOUS!! I am doing a Marie Antoinette inspired reception and this is perfect for us!
These stands are amazing! I love the Feather collection! My shoes actually have feathers on them so this feather collection would fit right in with our theme!
The cupcake stand is fabulous! I am already obsessed with cupcakes and this just feeds my insatiable appetite!
I am in love with the orange and white cake!!! Great designs!
I love love love the deep sage green in the Amber collection. It would be simply perfect for our small Australian bush wedding in October! The detailing is just gorgeous - I'm head over heels for this stand!
I love the orange with cream ribbon and the vintage looking pendant. In fact not only would it go beautifully for our Mexico destination wedding, but it would look wonderful on my buffet table in the dining room to hold a de-canter and my favorite wine glasses :)
The cupcake stand will add the right kind of artistic look to our upcoming "big fat Indian Wedding"(Aug. 8)! Having multiple events, we are creating a dessert buffet for the pre-wedding luncheon, and since cupcakes are my favorite, I've been looking for an artsy stand! In fact, I will purchase 2 in bright colors, which will fit right in with the theme of our wedding. Winning one of the cake stands before the events will be the perfect "icing to the cake" :)
I love the Holly Collection. It would be simple and perfect and not over shadow the cake!
The silver Bling Bling! stand is so gorgeous! It would perfectly complement our cream and silver cake. The vintage-style jewel is almost the same as the one on the wedding gown!
We are having a seaside wedding so their Seaside Collection is just perfect for the look we are trying to achieve! We love the stand with the aqua ribbon and think it would be perfect for the simple cake we are planning to go with {just like the one in the picture!}.
The lucky butterfly is utterly adorable. I am in love with it! I have not seen anything like it.
By far my favorite is the seaside collection. It would match perfectly with my beach themed wedding (ceremony on the beach, reception colors blue and green). The cake we are thinking about having is simple, blue with large white lines simulating waves, and 2 abstract goldfish made of icing. The stand is simple and will complement the cake.
I love the fiesta stand. So cute
I love the deep green fabric embellished with the flowers. It's so artistic and beautiful. I was just telling my future daughter-in-law "we have to raise the cake or it just disappears into the table". It's such a perfect name "raise the cake." I wish I'd thought of it.
I absolutely adore the Elegance Collection! With our traditional blush pink and white wedding any of those cake-stands would be so elegant. hence the name,... ;]
I love the cupcake stand. I could use this for any party. Great site! Thanks, M
I love butterflies and the Classic Colors Collection with Aqua Satin/White Ribbon/Crystal Colored Butterfly Bling is just right for my cake which will have a park theme.
The cupcake stand would be perfect for us! We would get it in Apple Green fabric with White ribbon.
The Bows and Bling design is simple, yet really elegant and special. It would fit perfectly in deep blue and white for my best friend's wedding at year-end. She's currently deciding between cupcakes, or cake, home-baking or buying something and I would love to gift her with something to make her display that much more gorgeous.
Ohhh, beautiful stands! We were actually considering not even having a cake, but these make it all worthwhile, and would simply force us to reconsider!!
I love the feathers collection! My cake looks like lace (my dress is lace) and I'm wearing a feathery flower in my hair! I think it would look very cool if my cake looked like me!!!! :)
I love the Cupcake Stand Collection. I adore cupcakes and will be featuring them at my wedding... along with some delicious candy. One of these amazing cake stands would be such a great centerpiece for my dessert display. "love is sweet." Cheers and thanks for the wonderful giveaway!
The Linda Collection is fantastic. It's just screams have a good time, dance, and don't forget to eat cake! It's fun but elegant, modern but classic- it's our wedding in a cake stand.
Raise the Cake rocks! Good luck everyone!
I'm in love with The Rhinestone Collection, it simple, clean and just perfect. All of the designs are beautiful, but this one is just stunning, and it just perfect for one of our Brides. I would love to be able to give it as a gift. It will really make the cake a show piece!
The ivory Antoine cake stand is my favorite and would be beautiful with the traditional style of our wedding (I'm old-fashioned, what can I say?). Although, the sage green Amber is lovely and almost makes me wish we were using that shade of green!
The Elegance collection fits my mantra for my wedding - simple lines and curves! I would love it in sage green with a pearl buckle!
LOVE the Amber collection in white. It adds an extra special touch to the wedding cake. Beautiful!! I think for our wedding it would look pretty in a light pink. What a great idea!!
The Antoina Collection (Ivory/pearl) is perfect for the chic, feminine style of wedding that I have envisioned!
I like that you can customize your own!
I love the Linda Collection in gold. I have a star theme and these would be perfect to make my cake stand out. Please pick me!
The Amber collection! It looks classy but fun! I love this idea
I really love the Amber collection, Very spring like with a fun yet elegant feel.
I'm in love with the simple Bling Collection. The silver stand with the white ribbon and the bling is classic and clean!! This is a great idea. I'm going to share it with my girls!!! Those colors would go PERFECT with my wedding and it's theme!
This collection is amazing!!
Wow! These are awesome! I LOVE the feathers collection - it would be perfect in Ruby Red or Sapphire blue!
My favourite cake stand is from the Antonia collection. I want my wedding to have a kind of Marie Antoinette feel - lavish and opulent, full of soft colours and loads of bling. Desert will take centre stage - there will be lots of beautifully decorated little cupcakes, pink David Austen roses and candles surrounding the main cake, which would be sitting on the Antonia stand as the centrepiece. I would pick the pink satin fabric for the stand, definitely with the lace and hand beaded pearls and sequins. The perfect way to 'raise the cake'!
Lovely cake stands, I just adore the Holly collection! The apple green & raspberry are simply gorgeous together!
I love, love, love the Antoina collection! It has the vintage-glam look which is exactly what my wedding is. I would love my cake to stand on this beuatiful pedestal!
I love the green one! I haven't seen anything like that before. Very fresh!
The bows and bling collection is gorgeous. I have always wanted one and heard about them through another wedding blog site. The stand is just so elegant while also being bling! My colors are black, white, and teal, and we're having a black tie event. This stand would really make the cake pop off of the cake table.
I absolutely love the stands from the elegance collection. So beautiful, and obviously elegant, but not over the top. Beautiful!!!
I am drooling over image number 15 on their website. That Tiffany blue is to die for and would be perfect for my wedding! Simply beautiful. What a great idea.
My heart stopped when I saw the the Amber Collection Deep Sage Green cake stand. It is spectacular, an ode to nature with a little bit of glam. This is exact vibe that I want for my Oct. wedding and my wedding cake. I don't have wedding colors but am looking to honor the season using the wonderful colors of autumn as inspiration. This cake stand speaks to me. I would be thrilled to place my wedding cake on this fabulous cake stand and would continue to put it to good use for years to come!
I love the bows and bling collection. Such elegant, beautiful work. I would love this for my wedding!
I love the Antoina collection... i just picked out my cake and it goes perfectly with the cake design we picked!
I love the cupcake stand! It would be perfect for my dessert bar! I love how simple it is!
I love the ivory and pearl bling in the Antoina collection. I am a sucker for all things sparkly so it would match my dress and jewels perfectly! My cake will have a cascade of orchids and this would make it even more dramatic & beautiful.
Image 12 of 17 on Raise the Cake Gallery is stunning. The cake stand includes color, design, decorative ornaments, just a little bit of everything to grab your guests attention. I like how subtle the design is and how the cake stand doesn't overwhelm the cake's design but adds another level to the overall look. LOVE IT!
Also, I meant to also mention that Image 12 of 17 is part of the sassy bride collection.
I love the classic whites collection simple but gorgeous!. Our colors are aqua and lime green and this would look with our cake.
I am in love with the feathers collection! It is so different and would fit my vintage, black, white and gray wedding to perfection!
I love the cupcake stand! Beeeauuutiful! I would choose the mocha color. Thanks for the opportunity!
The deep sage green Amber cake stand is breathtakingly beautiful. Our wedding colours are green and chocolate brown, and this stand would look just stunning with our chocolate and raspberry mousse wedding cake. We have been searching for the perfect piece to complement our cake and this stand is just ideal! Our wedding is very intimate and this would really just set off the day! I'd love to treasure this stand in years to come - what a wonderful keepsake it would make! Thankyou for this fantastic giveaway!
The ivory pearl Antoina would match my dress so nicely. I love them all!
The Amber stand is my favorite!
I love the Big Bling! collection! So pretty!
I like the bling-bling stands! In red and white.
The cupcake stand would be absolutely perfect for the dessert bar that I have planned for my wedding! I love the soft luxe look that a fabric stand adds... Hooray for Raise the Cake!
I dearly love the first striking cake stand with the green water lilies, charming details and little gems!!
My daughter is having the same color orchids in her wedding and this beautiful cake and gorgeous cake stand...deserve a "Standing" ovation!!! Oh, how I would love to surprise her with something so stunning and unique.
I love the cupcake stand collection ... so many fun ways to use these absolutely beautiful stands!
Of course I have to go with the cupcake stand (as I prepare the kitchen for a tornado of cupcake production in the coming weeks pre-wedding) Would love it in either a bright aqua or a blackberry colour with a bright ribbon.
Oh what a fun fun giveaway! And SUCH a unique idea too, i love this! I think I like the silver/silver/silver option in the Big Bling Collection. Our wedding colors are silver and purple, and I have a "simple elegance" theme.... I think this would fit in wonderfully!
I love the "Antonia" collection, and would choose mine in Ivory/pearl. It's a perfect vintage stand for a vintage wedding! : )
Wow! I am sure you are going to have over 600 comments here by Friday, but can't win if you don't try right!?!? I ADORE the Linda in silver. So much fun and feisty! Perfect for me!
I love Antoina in Ivory! Yumalicious!
My fiance and I were talking about our cupcakes and how to display them just yesterday and I mentioned getting a few low cake stands and he went completely groomzilla and said we had to have a tiered cupcake stand. I think he has been dreaming about our desserts for awhile now and has a whole vision of cupcake heaven, so my choice is the fabulous cupcake stand in baby pink! Gotta give the boy what he wants!
I like the cupcake stand!!
I LOVE THE orange stand, it as so much pizaaaazzzzz. I am such a sucker for all things bling and vintage and that is looks like it was from another era...just my favorite.
Our wedding reception is going to be a blast...a full on celebration! Our colors are pink and chartreuse, and we plan on having a full ice cream bar at the reception! Can you imagine how cute this cake stand would be with a cake and ice cream all around it?!
LOVE this giveaway idea!
I LOVE this website! Thanks for sharing. It was hard to pick just one favorite, but I fell in love with the The Big Bling! stand in gold. It's simple but provides a beautiful pop of color. Our cake is mostly white and tan colors, so I think the gold would make it stand out a little more. Love it!
What a beautiful, fun idea! I love the cake stands with the satin ribbon and the dazzling pendant. Such attention to detail. Very modern and chic! I wonder if it would work as a root beer float stand too? My fiance always makes me a root beer float in my favorite glass when I am in need of a pick-me-up. We thought it would be cool to have floats at our wedding too!
I absolutely love the first picture of the green stand!! It's from the Amber collection http://www.raisethecake.com/_product_40583/The_Amber_Collection
We are having cupcakes with a small cake for the top tier. The cupcake stand with the aqua fabric would be the ideal color for our wedding....
I LOVE the orange stand with the pendant..it looks vintage, yet chic..just what my vision is for our wedding! What a great pop of color!!
I really love the cupcake stand and would want it in the baby pink color.
the Tiffany's colored boxes!
i'm in love all over again!! the raise the cake stands are chic with a hint of vintage
flair and simply stunning
my favorite is from the bling collection...white base & turquoise ribbon w/the blingy rhinestones
F A B U L O U S!!!
I adore the dark sage green Amber stand - it is simply stunning. It would match our green and chocolate brown theme just perfectly and I can picture our cake sitting on top of it. Pure gorgeousness!
I LOVE the Linda Collection! The round sparklys would be such a great, subtle accent to my polka dotted wedding dress!
I love the Amber Collection, especially the white one. It is simply beautiful and such a great way to display something as scrumptious as a wedding cake. We are planning on a very tight budget, being both graduate students and surviving a long distance relationship right now, but having this stand would help give the wedding a touch of elegance in all the right places. Thanks for the opportunity to enter!
Especially the last one looks really beautiful!
I have been looking all over for cupcake stand ideas/places to purchase and have yet to find anything until finding the website! I am a cupcake fanatic (actually took #1 at a cupcake eating contest...don't judge) and my mom and I are attempting to make 200+ cupcakes in a month for my wedding...should be interesting. I LOVE the simple colored cupcake stand (apple green is one of my colors) and it would go perfect and pop with our simple theme and white walls at our venue. What an awesome idea and so glad I found your site with 31 days till!! :)
I would love the cupcake stand for our wedding. Cupcakes is one of the first things my fiance and I gleefully decided on when talking about getting married. We love them and would love one of these to display them with!
I love the Antoina Collection in ivory. I am doing a combination of a small cake, cupcakes and a chocolate bar much like a candy bar. Mmm :)
What a creative way to personalize your cake even further! We fell in love with the orange cake stand from the Big Bling Collection as it will bring out the gold and rust colors that we're using for our Fall wedding at our local orchard. Thank you!
I love the cupcake stand. We're going to do something similar, but with cookies (instead of a groom's cake)!
its all about the party...fiesta fits our theme perfectly!
Love the idea of having a cupcake stand for my shower! Burgundy & gold would be sublime. Thanks for the offer.
I am in love with the Ivory/pearl Antonia =)
Thanks for the opportunity!
Completely adore the Cupcake Stand in Ivory. With all these brightly colored cupcakes we're crafting, the stand would be perfect!
My fiance wanted to have cupcakes instead of the traditional tiered cake so I so love the Cupcake stand in silver and white. It would be gorgeous with our other color yellow!!!!
Love this idea. I like all of them. The sage green is so over the top. All are beautiful. Great idea.
Absolutely love the bling collection! Anything with bling has me taken.
I absolutely love the Big Bling in Gold! LOVE!
oooh, i LOOOVE the linda stand!! so different and fun
What a SWEET giveaway!! Raise the cake, cake stands are unique, elegant and aborable. I love the elegance collection in fuschia. Thanks :)
LOVE, the Antoina collection. Precious!
These are a-m-a-z-i-n-g! Anything from the Antoina collection would fit our vintage style holiday wedding perfectly. I especially love the white/rhinestone bling. My fiance and I are having a fairly plain cake and this would dress it up so well!
I love the Antonia in white with the pearl bling. It's a very elegant, classic look that would be perfect for a variety of wedding themes.
i love the green cakse stand with the little flowers! so great- cute but sophisticated! i love it.
I love the The Bows and Bling! Collection. It's preppy and classic, and I can imagine a dozen ways to use this cake stand! Very beautiful.
I love the Big Bling Collection cake stand! It is so beautiful and would enhance the visual of any cake.
I love the amber collection -- in green. It's classic and goes with any flowery cake.
I love the feathers collection!! Girly and still sophsticated - it would fit in perfectly at my white on white wedding!
Since our cake is going to be fairly sleek and simple (ivory buttercream with black ribbons and a cluster of pink roses) I think a stand like the Linda in silver would be the perfect fun, sparkly complement! All the stands are supercute though - what a cool company! Thanks for the contest, SMP :)
The Feathers Collection is just divine! It would compliment our cake just perfect since its a bit fun & flirty and our cake is more simple, i think it would just pop, such a great giveaway!
I love the fourth one "The Rhinestone Collection" because it is a classic and elegant! Thanks for this contest and for showcasing Raise The Cake such a great company!!
Absolutely love the green leafy stand. It would be perfect with my "unexpectedly fall" theme with chocolate, jade green and eggplant decor! Our cake is going to be fairly simple, so the stand would spice things up a bit..
OHHH I love the feather collection as well! I would accent my hair piece PERFECTLY!!!
I love The Elegance Collection! So simple, beautiful, sophisticated, and fancy all in one!
Love the idea of cake stands that are not silver or glass. Thanks for the contest, and sharing Raise the Cake with us!
The feather collection, white on white is perfect. The light feathers, the crisp white stand add an air of whimsy and elegance while taking nothing from the cake.
I love the feathers! I did my wedding with feathers so I'm a little biased -- ha!
I love their cupcake stands! We decided to go with cupcakes right away instead of cake, since they have been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. I haven't been able to find a stand yet though that is exactly what I want... a little more feminine and dressed up without being too formal. THESE ONES ARE PERFECT by Raise the Cake! I would love Ivory with a Silver ribbon :)
I love the cupcake stand in aqua as it is shown! I also love the Linda but we haven't totally narrowed down our colors so I'm not sure if that would work as well. We're planning a dessert bar so we're looking for lots of ways to display cakes/cupcakes/brownies/etc!
The white with silver on the Elegance collection would be perfect.
The cupcake stand "takes the cake", so to speak, for me! I love the color, and my company totally sees a trend in having individual, bite size cupcakes and desserts instead of the traditional wedding cake. This would be perfect for any of our events!!!
I love the cupcake stand! I'd choose some combination of white, gold, or chocolate.
i love the feather collections...these are so fun!!
I love the feathers collection! It's fun and stylish and would be perfect in white on white for my all white cake!
i adore these cake stands. what a beautiful way to display your wedding cake. unfortunately i can't splurge on one for my budget conscious wedding. but i can admire from a far the simple classic colors collection. The Lavender Satin with Eggplant Ribbon & Antique Bling option would compliment our reception decor perfectly.
Thank you so much for introducing us to such wonderful and special vendors!
I am most definitely having a cupcake tower so guests can pick and choose at their leisure without guilt! Therefore, the cupcake tower is perfection. Our winter wonderland theme for our New Year's Eve wedding calls for cool metallic tones. Our guests would love the aqua tower accented with a silver ribbon. Or perhaps the other way around?
Love love love these stands!
The cupcake stand would be perfect for our cupcakes. I would choose it in Apple Green with a hot pink ribbon for a bit of pizzaz!
The Cupcake Stand Collection is my favorite! I would go with gold!
The elegance is perfect in black on black with our all white cake. The perfect finishing touch for our rockabilly wedding!
I am in love with the Cupcake Stand. I love the aqua color here, but think I would go with the Baby Pink. I am wanting to make my own cupcakes for our wedding, but can't decide if that would put too much pressure on myself so close to the date.
How lovely! I'm a fan of the Antoina in Ivory. It's just perfect.
I have been looking for a cupcake stand just like the ones in your collection! Since my fiance and I are more cupcake people than fondant people (and need to cut corners so I can hire my dream photographer!), we are doing an assortment of cupcakes and french macarons. The bakery making the macarons has a cake-shaped stand that holds 65 macarons- how perfect to have two towers of deliciousness!!
I adore the feather collection, especially the white with white flowers. It's crisp, classy, fun, and flirty all at the same time.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the "Bows and Bling!" Collection!!
The second photo in the gallery is actually one of my favorites. Our wedding has an Etsy/Anthropologie design concept with shades of green and a hint of pink. Our cake will be a 4 tier squared design with a textured buttercream finish, and a winding branch accented with a small nest and two love birds. So of course it was either the second photo in the gallery or the feather collection...which to choose!? They're both so wonderful! :o)
I'm loving both the Bows and Bling! (classic) and the Tandori (because I LOVE paisley) collections!
I love the Amber collection! The black flowers contrasted with the white fabric is exquisite and just the exact elegance that we are going for with out black, white and raspberry color scheme. I also really enjoyed the cupcake stand, the bright aqua blue color is gorgeous. I took the time to look through some of the other designs and customizing and the options are AMAZING. We are doing a dessert buffet with a variety of bakery favorites and some homemade treats and I really want to make the presentation speculator and one of these custom stands would be perfect! I LOVE IT!
My favorite by far is the Amber collection in deep sage green!!!! Thanks for the great contest!!
The Amber Collection [in B&W] sums up our wedding style to a T. This would be a luxury item to our budget wedding. What a [sweet] treat it would be to have our cake & eat it too!
Cheers,
Shannon
Wow, what a gorgeous/creative collection of cake stands! I love the Linda in silver, we're modernizing the traditional Chinese lantern look the wedding with a geometric theme of circles. The cakestand matches our invitations almost perfectly. So modern, so chic!
The elegance in gold with gold bling is the perfect color for our champagne/gold/burgundy fall color scheme. Love the rich fabrics and texture!
The orange and gold cake stand is simply stunning. I am having a fall, multicultural wedding and that cake stand would shine under our simple and sweet ivory buttercream cake. Thank you for the opportunity.
~Lauren
Such beautiful cake stands!

I absolutely LOOOVE all of them but my fav is orange/gold with the rhinestone fixture. It perfectly compliments the cake while having it's own flare. I totally reminds be of a classy and modern clutch! Not only is it perfect for the cake stand, you can even use it later after the wedding as a stand to pile books on or since we're all used to standing on the platforms while dress shopping, this can become our own personal platform at home :)
I love the rhinestone cake stand its simple but classic, a nice simple white cake would look beautiful!
Laura
Wow! That is so hard, they are all so cute!! I love the feathers, but I am getting married on the beach - so I am going with the Seaside collection in ivory!
I like formal & fancy [and so does my fiance] so the Elegance Collection matches our cake & decor.
oh my goodness i love the green leafy one. I'd want it in a different color with maybe some flowers instead, but its absolutely stunning!
The Elegance Collection, all the way! Makes me want to wrap myself in satin and stick a brooch on me. I'm kidding.
Gorgeous!
I love the Big Bling! This would go with my wedding ambience and colors perfectly. We are doing red, burnt orange and gold, and we have a lot of bling! I think this particular cake stand would compliment our reception beautifully - especially with the center pendent.
I love the seaside collection cake stand- in aqua with a white ribbon My adorable groom(zilla) is demanding that we have a simple white cake for our nautical affair. I have been trying to pull for some seashell bling but he is not relenting. Not only would the aqua color of the stand match my bridesmaid dresses, it would really help our cake stand out and take center stage where it belongs!
I'm a fan of the Lucky Butterfly design! I love butterflies, and the bright crimson color will be perfect in our color scheme (pale pink and red). My future husband is Chinese, and I'm always looking for nice touches in red, a traditional Chinese color of celebration, to honor his heritage and commemorate our marriage--so the coloring works perfectly in that respect as well!
The cupcake stand is amazing and it would solve all of my dessert serving issues. We thought it would be so great to offer variety to our guests and serve cupcakes at our wedding. We've booked the baker and my Fiancee is very excited about it, the only thing he really wanted total say in. Now, weeks later I've realized that cupcakes on a tray will look like a party at a VFW hall in person and in the picutres. I've got one cakestand of my own and the hall has none. The baker is a friend, who is starting up their own business so I drew another blank. So I've been racking my brain and searching the net to find an adorable yet inexpensive ways to display/serve our cupcakes while keeping in line with the theme of our wedding. Raise the Cake is the solution. Their work is elegant and functional and I'd love to have their stand be part of our special day.
The Rhinestone Collection is gorgeous! It would pefectly compliment my chic, classic theme. What a great company! I think I'll buy one even if I don't win!
Cupcake stand for sure! Every girl needs something "blue", and this pyramid of frosting exemplifies a fun presentations full of alternative uses in the future. A (boy) Baby Shower...in the future?!
I love the Black and White stand in the Amber Collection. This would be perfect. I am having a square cake and it has been very hard finding a stand. Also the design matches our invitations almost perfectly. I can't wait to see more of their work!
I'm in LOVE with the Antonia in pink! I was just having a cake stand crisis and now it is solved. I'm having a romantic vintage-style reception with pinks, rose reds, and pearls and this stand will work perfectly!
We're going to have a decadent cake, hazelnut with chocolate ganache and coffee syrup, smothered with butter cream. The Ivory/Pearl combination in the Antoina Collection is beautiful and really rich in it's artistry, which will help display visually the full richness of our cake.
The photo on the top left (the Amber collection in green with the floral print) is goregous and will fit in perfectly with my rustic, earthy southern weddding!
I love the Antonia Pink/pearl - just enough color and accent to enhance a white cake!
What a great idea for a business!! This is definitely needed! I would love the cupcake stand in apple green or light blue for my spring 2009 wedding. It would go great with my Vanilla and baby blue buttercream cupcakes!
The Elegance Collection would be a lovely addition for our fall wedding!
I would LOVE the Amber Collection in white! Would be perfect for our rustic spring wedding!
love these...it looks like an extra layer to the cake. so pretty!!
I can't tell you how thankful I would be to win this giveaway. My aunts have graciously offered to make cupcakes for our wedding. They are gourmets and I'm sure the cupcakes will be beautiful, but I haven't come across a way to display them that I thought would do them justice... until I saw the cupcake stand at Raise the Cake's web site. It is so perfect for our wedding. I'll keep my fingers crossed!
My best friend is taking advantage of her mis-fortune of getting laid-off and starting a cupcake business. The Cupcake Stand Collection in Ivory would be perfect to help show off her talent!
The Big Bling Collection caught my eye immediately! Probably because the one pictured is exactly what I would need. Ivory with orange details. LOVE IT!
I think the silver paillettes sewn on the Linda Collection's cake stand really would give my cake the wow factor it needs. I love that it's not at all gaudy. It's simple, elegant and will really capture the light, causing the cake to glimmer! So pretty!
I LOVE the silver stand from the "Linda Collection". I am having an Old Hollywood Glamour theme wedding and it would be the perfect cake stand. It would definitely give my cake the "IT" factor that I am looking for. I am having an evening wedding and my venue is filled with antique chandeliers and candle light. I can just imagine how beautiful it will look in the lighting. It will truly give off that classy old hollywood vibe.
I'm getting married next year in my fiance's hometown in Ireland and have just recently discovered that the cake is not such a big deal there as it is here in the US. I really, really want to have a beautiful and delicious cake that everyone will remember and am looking for a great way to show it off. Raise The Cake's Elegance Collection is stunning and is exactly what I've been looking for to put my lovely little American tradition on a pedestal! Gorgeous!
The Antoina collection is pure luxurious elegance! It would be a lovely part of my urban vintage wedding!
Inny Minny Miny Moe!!!! I love both the Big Bling and Elegance Collections in gold. They are both so beautiful but I believe the I will go with the Big Bling. I love the embellishment on it, just my style! I won't even need a cake topper!! Thanks for the chance at winning!
Love the Bows & Bling collection!!
The Bows and Bling! in silver with the soft pink ribbon is pretty much my dream stand. We are having a Cape Cod wedding with clean and preppy details accented with small amounts of luxe (soft pink and navy are our colors). Our cake is buttercream so I have been looking for a great way to bring the colors/theme to the cake. Not only that, I am an amateur baker in my spare time and several of my friends have already told me they expect a lot from my cake! This would make it perfect!
The Antoina Collection is my absolute favorite. Our wedding is in an old Victorian hotel and the cake stand would totally compliment the decor of the hotel and my wedding dress. To me, the wedding cake is one of the most important elements of the wedding reception, so I would proudly show off this gorgeous cake stand. Please pick me.
Wow these are so beautiful!!
The pink/pearl one from the Antonia Collection would be so wonderful to have on my big day in Coronado, CA. ( I think it's the pink/pearl one anyway. It's the first thumbnail pic in the Antonia Collection. It looks a bit orange actually?)
My cake and I would be so happy if we had one of these beautiful stands!
What fabulous stands! Love the Feathers Collection, it's so elegant and my cake would look gorgeous on a white/white stand. Would be one happy bride in Atlanta if I won a stand! Thanks so much!
I just LOVE the Feathers collection in white! My wedding dress is all lace, and I have a hair flower that is made of lace and feathers. The cake stand would definitely tie in flawlessly! I cannot believe I haven't seen these before - they are absolutely beautiful!
the Antoina in ivory is soo beautiful! it goes perfectly with my vintage inspired wedding decor!
I love the stacked box stand for the cupcakes. It is so difficult to find a classic cupcake stand and yours is definitely a beauty. I would love to have one for my brides. :)
I LOVE love LOVE the cupcake stand in silver! I have been looking for something to dress up our simple cupcakes, and that would literally and figuratively take the cake!
I LOVE the Elegance Collection - silver/silver bling all the way! So sophisticated, so elegant. It will certainly spike up the glamour factor of our cake!
My favorite is the Bows and Bling! collection, in silver with the white bow. It is simply elegant and sophisticated, not to mention that it mimics the satin bow on my gown. I love it!
I love the cupcake tower collection. Since I want my cupcakes to stand out (making them myself from favorite family cake recipes) I think the ivory fabric stand with gold ribbon would be lovely. It would blend with our cream, gold, and navy colors just great. Thanks, and fingers crossed!
Wow, the Raise the Cake website was super friendly and really got the creative juices flowing! My reception will be in this grand old library where my fiance Andrew and I went to university. I was thinking, squaure fondant cupcakes shaped like books and put up on a cupcake stand . . .and I just got all excited because it would be the most amazing way to tie in the reception, our background, and the cake! My colors are pretty subdued for a fall 2009 wedding, but I really appreciated the mocha fabric with gold ribbon.
here's hopin' :-)
I love all of the Raise the Cake cakestands, but my absolute favourite is the Antoina in ivory, it is so charming!
The gold Big Bling! cake stand is absolutely gorgeous, and I can't think of a more perfect complement to our wedding cake, which will be a highlight of the evening for me! We are having a combined Hindu/Catholic wedding, and our reception decor is rich with vibrant colors (deep orange, raspberry, and gold) and modern takes on Indian motifs. We weren't crazy about any of the cake stands that we had seen, but this photo has left me inspired. I would love to show this cake stand off at my wedding!
I absolutely love the gold big bling. My Fiance and I are throwing Vintage glam Wedding and our inspiration are vintage brooches. You honestly have the best giveaways! Weddings can being very expensive and it very generous of you to help us brides out! Thanks so much! You ever wins , I am sure absolutely deserves its! Thanks again!

Oh my gosh! These are the most amazing stands. It would make my smaller wedding cake a stunner! It is a lucky lucky bride who will win this one.
My favorite is the orange one with the yellow ribbon. Big Bling!!
My Favorite is the Linda Collection in silver. We are going to have a really large wedding so an awesome stand would really make the large cake stand out!
I would like to create a cupcake stand using the Fiesta Collection, bottom blue, middle pink and top blue...seeing that my wedding is a carnival this would be a very fun additon!
i just love the elegance collection, particularly in the silver and gold! it has such a timeless, understated elegance to it, just like a beautiful evening dress. it won't compete at all with the design of almost any cake, but instead enhance the overall look.
I absolutely love the pink cake stand from the Classic Colors Collection. It would be perfect for our wedding in September! :-)
I adore the 'Silver/silver bling' stand from the Elegance collection!
Not only is it chic, unique and (as the name implies) elegant, but it would also fit our wedding theme perfectly as it's an exact match for the shoes I'll be wearing on the big day!*
You can check them out here (can you tell I'm excited? Ha ha) - http://images.windsorstore.com/images/products/1_36183_FS.jpg
This is great! A fancy cake just isn't in our budget, but I think we could make it happen with this cake stand!
I am probably too late, but I absolutely love the green cake stand, it would go PERFECTLY with our organic themed wedding (beautiful birdy topper with sugar paper grass and green orchids). These are all amazing and such a wonderful idea.
Wow! my heart skipped a beat when I reached the home page of raise the cake. My fiancee and I spent so much time choosing the most decadent wedding cake, with a beautiful design. For us, our wedding cake was one detail most definitely NOT to be overlooked for our big day. I was surprised that I had not thought about a cake stand.
My favorite stand is image #14 (the white cake with blue frosting and orange/red flowers). The cake stand is perfect for our latin flair theme. I love the rich colors and the swirly design. And of course, the bling bling is just the 'icing on the cake'!
thanks so much!
These are all beautiful!! My favorite has to be the White and Gold with rhinestones!! :)
Raise the Cake is such a beautiful detail that just would add so much to our wedding! My fiance's mom has graciously offered to make a cake and this would be the perfect way to show off her talent! The Amber Collection in Black/White would tie in so well with the rest of the wedding decorations. I can't believe I never even though about a cake stand until I saw these!
The Seaside Collection would be a perfect fit for my intimate Cape Cod wedding! I love the shell accents on the stand!
I just wanted to say that the Amber Collection is absolutely beautiful!!!!! The Deep Sage Green is my favorite.
