Can someone EXPLAIN HOW the cake WOULD NOT FALL if tilted to its shown position? It is mind-boggling !!

U would not want a complete sideways tilt but the platform has grippy rubbery type stuff on it. The purple is the grippy

The purple strips are gripper strips. I am so glad we can decorate our cakes in different positions.

You need a small base for this cake -- maybe a large cracker or cookie or even a cardboard square -- on which to put the cake. Use frosting generously on the bottom and around the cake so it sticks to the base. The cake really looks nice when finished. Hope this helps.

I only used it on a wedding cake. The way it is made, in my opinion it would take quite abit of showing it to keep it on there and not have it droop in places.

Actually, with more experimenting, I've discovered that you can, by sliding the plate backwards on the scale. It looks a little out of balance, but seems stable enough. I'm going to amend my review to include this, in fairness to Mira.

The cake topper is currently packed away but the base is no bigger than the bottom of the item touching the "ground" as shown in the picture. Our cake topper was actually put on after our buttercream wedding cake was brought out, no one was touching the table (as seen in our wedding video) and the topper fell over. Since we were in such a good mood, this was not a problem from us as we just rotated the cake to hide the smudge of icing and left the topper on the side. This was a great wedding topper that worked for us, but I would recommend finding something flat to glue this to so it doesn't easily fall over :) The cake topper is currently packed away but the base is no bigger than the bottom of the item touching the "ground" as shown in the picture.

No problem with the nut cake last Christmas. If the diameter of your cake exceeds the flat part of the base, that may create some difficulty.

You have to put the cake on a cake board so you can move it off the turntable or anywhere else. thanx

Very carefully. I use buttercream or frosting to 'stick' the cake to the cake board and so far I've had no issues at all and I've made and transported several of these. On one occasion I wasn't too sure since I had a lot of topping so I inserted long wooden kebab sticks through the cake from top to bottom, once I'd reached the party I pulled them out and stuck sugarpaste flowers over the holes, if the topping allows this then its a good way to put your mind at ease I also buy a cardboard cake box the same size as the cake board so there's no movement there. Like I say, fingers crossed I've had no issues so far.

The square slide moves back and forth over the grater. The dough is placed in the square, the entire grater is placed over a pot of boiling water and the heat makes the dough soften and gravity takes over. It's a messy job but it works!

It is not totally flat. It has a raised ring around the bottom and then flattens out. So, if you were to back a cake and turn it upside down, you would have an indent on the cake bottom where the pan is raised. The ring is about 1/2 inch wide and about 1/2 inch in from outside of the pan.

My feeling would be that cakes would be too delicate to get out of the tin without it crumbling. The best way to do tiny cakes is bake a sheetcake and cool thoroughly. Then use assorted cookie cutters to obtain the shape you want. Hope this was helpful

Once the base cake is not larger than 10" it should be fine as its quite sturdy. Anything larger may cause it to tip over

Well, the picture isn't to big. I made a rectangular cake of approximately 2 pounds, I put the image in the center of the cake and I decorated as the picture you see in Amazon. Was perfect!!!

The only way that would happen is if it was bumped or the item on it was too heavy and the table was at a tilted angle. I've never had any mechanical issues with mine. Its a great little table!!

There is a small wooden peg at the top that you put the ring over. It leans backwards against the peg. It doesn't necessarily hold it in place though. If you were to pick the box up or to tip it, the ring would fall off or slide around.

This is one of Wilton's best inventions! It is the best one I have ever owned/purchased. When you use it just make sure you don't put the cake on it until you have it set. It won't fall off, it will just give you a heart attack! �
