FAQs
What size cakes can this stand accommodate?
The stand is designed for small cakes, petit fours, or individual servings. It is not intended for large or standard-sized cakes.
Is the glass dishwasher safe?
No, it is recommended to hand wash the LSA International Serve Stand & Dome to preserve the quality and integrity of the mouth-blown glass.
Can I put hot food under the dome?
It is not recommended to place very hot food directly under the glass dome, as extreme temperature changes can cause the glass to crack. Allow hot items to cool slightly before covering.
Is this product suitable for outdoor use?
While durable for indoor entertaining, it is best kept away from potential hazards like strong winds or uneven surfaces when used outdoors, due to its glass construction.
What does 'mouth-blown' mean for the product?
'Mouth-blown' signifies that each piece of glass is individually crafted by artisans, resulting in unique characteristics and a handmade quality. Slight variations are a hallmark of this process.
How should I store the stand and dome?
Store in a secure location. To prevent damage, consider storing the dome and stand separately, or use a protective layer like a soft cloth between them if stacked.
Troubleshooting
Dome doesn't fit snugly on the stand.
Ensure both the stand and the inside rim of the dome are clean and dry. Minor variations are inherent in mouth-blown glass; slight adjustments in positioning may be necessary.
Visible imperfections in the glass.
Small bubbles or slight variations in thickness are normal characteristics of mouth-blown glass and do not affect its functionality or safety.
Cloudiness after washing.
This can be due to mineral deposits from hard water. Hand wash with a mild detergent and dry thoroughly with a lint-free cloth immediately after rinsing. For stubborn spots, a vinegar solution can be used for cleaning, followed by a thorough rinse and drying.
