Uses

Cake domes keep your favorite baked goods fresh without having to cover them up and tuck them away. Skip the aluminum foil and instead display your baked creation in one of these domes. These glass domes help to maintain freshness, and they can be placed over Williams Sonoma cake stands. Or, use another serving platter and simply place the cake dome on top of it. Then, you can easily remove it when it's time to serve your delicious dessert. As a result, these domes serve as a decorative display as well as a convenient piece of serveware.

You can use these domes for other foods as well. Paired with a cake stand or serving platter, cake domes allow you to display hors d'oeurves, a cheese platter or a stack of freshly baked cookies in a new way. Add these domes to your next buffet and enjoy their versatility.

Styles and Construction

This collection includes several styles of cake domes. Once you invest in one of these pieces, it will become as essential as your cake pan when baking. They feature a mouth-blown glass construction, which makes them sturdy. Domes include handles for easy lid lifting. Choose from a knob or rope lid. Some cake domes include the pedestal, while others can be paired with pedestals that you already have. Another style of cake dome includes a durable ash wood base, which provides ample space for display cakes, cookies or appetizers. One style even includes a dome that inverts on the pedestal, allowing it to serve as a punch bowl as well. For a personalized touch, consider adding a monogram to the glass dome.

Whether you're an avid baker or just an occasional one, having the right bakeware and serveware on hand makes creating your favorite confections a simpler task. You can even use a cake dome to display Williams Sonoma cakes, which come in an array of flavors and sizes. So, get ready for your next gathering by adding one of these domes to your kitchen.
