Are you tired of transporting cakes to parties and events only to have them damaged or ruined along the way? If so, then a felt cake carrier might just be the solution you need. Not only will it protect your delicious creations but it will also add a touch of style to your presentation. In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through the process of making your own felt cake carrier.

Materials You Will Need

  • 1 yard of sturdy felt fabric
  • Fabric scissors
  • Measuring tape
  • Sewing machine (or needle and thread if sewing by hand)
  • Velcro strips
  • Decorative ribbon or trim (optional)

Step 1: Measure and Cut

Begin by measuring the diameter of your cake tin or plate. Add an extra 2 inches to this measurement to allow for seam allowances. With your measurements in mind, mark and cut two circles from the felt fabric. These will serve as the top and bottom pieces of your cake carrier.

Step 2: Cut the Sides

Next, measure the height of your cake tin or plate. Multiply this measurement by 2 and add 2 inches for seam allowances. Cut a long rectangle from the felt fabric that matches this measurement in length and is wide enough to wrap around the circumference of your cake tin or plate.

Step 3: Sew the Sides

Take the long rectangle piece of felt and fold it in half lengthwise with the right sides facing each other. Sew a straight stitch along the raw edges, leaving both ends open. This will create a tube-like shape.

Step 4: Attach the Top and Bottom Pieces

Place one of the felt circles on top of the tube you just created with the right sides facing each other. Align the edges and pin them in place. Sew around the perimeter of the circle, joining it to the tube. Repeat this step for the other end of the tube with the remaining felt circle.

Step 5: Add the Closure

Decide where you want the opening of your cake carrier to be and cut a straight line from the top edge down to the tube. Apply Velcro strips to the inside edges of the opening to create a secure closure. If desired, you can also add a decorative ribbon or trim to enhance the aesthetics of your cake carrier.

Step 6: Finishing Touches

Once your cake carrier is assembled, trim any excess thread and give it a final inspection. You can also personalize it by adding decorative touches such as embroidered initials or fabric flowers.

And voila! You now have a beautiful and functional felt cake carrier that will ensure your cakes arrive safely and in style. Happy cake transporting!
