Is the dome high enough for a 3 layer cake?

I am not sure how high is your 3 layer cake but it will fit a cake up to 4.5" high.

I believe so, however, not knowing the exact inches of the pan, it shouldn't be too high because icing would get on the dome. My daughter did a three layer and it was fine because her cake pans weren't too high to start with. I hope this helps.

it would depend on the thickness of the layers. I would say no to a full three layer cake, but thinner layers you could make it work.

I gave the tiered rack to my daughter-in-law for Christmas and she is away right now. I did message her and she did not think a layer cake would fit between the plates. If youmwould like, I can ave her measure it when she returns (next week). Hope this was helpful!

I believe the dome is between 10 and 11 inches.... I am going from memory as my dome cracked in transport during a move and I no longer have the dome.... I do remember placing a 9 inch round double stacked cake on the plate an the dome cleared the top with room to spare and the sides had about 1-2 inches of clearance, that is where I am getting my guess-timation. I hope this was if some assistance.

It measures 4.75 inches between plates and to the top knob; so a 2-layer cake no more than 4 inches high should fit. Remember the top plate has the legs arching in to the carry knob which would come close to the cake top edge.

I used this tower for a baby shower and displayed 24 "normal" sized cupcakes on it (not the giant gourmet sized ones), with a little extra room to spare. I had three on the top tier, but probably could have squeezed four onto it. It seems really sturdy once you get it assembled, as long as you're sure to push the stems into the plates fully. I don't know how heavy your top tier cake is, but as long as it's going to be sitting still, I'm sure it could handle the weight.

Definitely. I put a three layer cake in it once that was snug but still had breathing room.

I would say "yes" as the cake plate is made of very heavy glass. It is not delicate but sturdy. I would say it would hold a three tiered cake at least.

I would think so, depending on how many people will be having the cake. If you think that you will need more cake for a large shower, then I would place it on top of a larger cake, like a sheet cake. I used it for the body of a dog and used 1/2 of the Wilton sport ball for the head. Between the two, it was more than enough cake for 30 people with left overs. This is a nice sturdy pan. I used one of the support rings from the Wilton sport ball to hold the Fat Daddio while it baked as it does not come with a support ring to back it on.

Yes. It's probably even overkill for just a bundt cake. It's really tall and fits a 12" cake platter.

The layers are not quite 4-1/2" apart. Top to bottom of the unit is 18"; From the center out on the bottom layer is 3-3/4"; the next layer from center out is 3-1/2 "; third layer from center out is 3"; the top layer from center out is 2-3/4 ". The very top is 1-1/2" in diameter. It will hold at least 29 of the regular sized cupcakes. The very top will hold one, too, or you can put a flower or something on top. I have the four-tier and two of the three-tier stacks and they make a beautiful presentation of cupcakes. Used them at a wedding in 2012 and received great reviews ...course the cupcakes received great reviews as well! You may use this to serve fruits or veggies as well. Enjoy! I'm very glad I purchased it and totally recommend it.

This did a 3 layer wedding cake very thinly. The bottom was a 16", middle 12", top 8". Each layer was about 4" thick.

A double layer will fit as long as the cake is no more than 8 inch in diameter. No three layers is to high, wont fit especially if your planning on adding frosting!

The very top teir is small. Enough to fit a 6 inch cake, or about 5 standard size cupcakes. With a 8 inch cake it would fit better on the second to the last teir. Hope I was helpful.

Perhaps it can be done if you put the biggest plates nearest the bottom for weight. And only if connected securely and only layering cupcakes which don't have a lot of weight. Can you do a test run before the event to be sure? If too weak, someone is liable to bump the table or rush past the tiers and they will not be steady. The higher you go, the weaker it becomes...

Hi Lisa, I would say "yes" if you don't over do it with the chocolate, and use a thin layer, on the bottem and the top.

yes it will. The lid pops up and there is ample room for a 3 layer cake. the cupcake trays are removable.
