Unless you make cakes on a weekly basis, which most of us don't, it's always good to multi-task the container. I had an extra large round storage container I keep salad in, but when I need to bring a cake somewhere I flip the container upside down and put the cake on the lid and then cover it with the bowl. My bowl is round with a full flat bottom so it fits double layer cakes perfectly. And the container is clear plastic with a blue ridge around the edge of the lid, so it looks nice when set out at a party. I've also use Pyrex dishes and covers, depending on the shape and size of the cake. Hope this helps! Something to think about when you are looking into a cake keeper.

It's easy, delicious, and so cheap to make! Try this recipe: 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn 1 teaspoon of olive oil 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste Mix the three ingredients together, put in a paperbag, fold the top 2 times to seal in the ingredients. Pop at full power for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes or until you hear 2 seconds between pops. Carefully open the bag to let the steam out and then pour into a bowl. You can pour melted butter or popcorn seasoning over it for extra flavor. .-= Budget Gal Angie´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.budgeting-steps.com/student-budget.html" rel="nofollow">Living On A Student Budget</a> =-.

I got mine last year at a church rummage sale for $5. Makes great popcorn and is far healthier and cheaper than the microwave kind... Garage sales and rummage sales for hot air popcorn makers.
