Dowel cake design

Buy Dowel and pillar for cake design

Dowel, or literally translated dowel, is essential for maintaining your layered cakes.

Dowel rods are essential utensils for cake design. Sugar paste cakes, wedding cakes and wedding cakes often have heavy weights. To ensure your tiered cake stays in place, you can place dowels or pillars. These serve as support and ensure the solidity of the structure of your cake design. They prevent a floor from shifting or collapsing.

The dowel or column also allows you to make gravity cakes, that is to say leaning and hanging cakes. They have a supporting role but also a presentation one. They are to be used with cake boards to ensure support.

We sell different types of Dowel which do not all have the same use:

Wooden dowels

We offer you wooden dowels which will serve as reinforcement for your cake. Simply cut them to the correct length and insert them into the bottom cake layer. You then place the upper layer on top, this will ensure that your cake does not fall under the weight of the layers.

You can also use our dowels to make pop cakes.

Plastic dowels

Plastic dowels have the same function as wooden dowels. What differentiates them is of course the material, but also the shape, in fact we offer you hollow plastic dowels.

You can use them to hold your cakes. We offer them in several formats and in different sizes.

The different ways to use Dowel for cakes

After purchasing dowels , there are several ways to use them, the first is as a vertical support . By inserting the rods vertically into the bottom layers of the cake to support the top layers, your cake will be sturdier and not sag.

You can use them to separate the different layers of your cake . Simply place them horizontally in each cake layer to create a solid separation between them.

Another way to use the dowels is as a central support , insert them vertically into the center of the cake to ensure the stability of the cake and prevent it from sagging.
