What is the Ribbed Beaded Column Separator?

The Ribbed Beaded Column takes our stacked-bead form and adds fine vertical ribbing across each bead, catching the light for a richer, more decorative finish. It brings texture and detail between your tiers, making it a natural fit for statement wedding cakes and designs where the separator is part of the story rather than just structure.

Each separator is 3D printed to order in food-safe Eco PLA and finished in your choice of colour. The set comes with two utility plates and fixings, so you can run a single central column or several columns to build a fuller, more ornate tier.

Built to Perform

• Two sturdy utility plates per set, each supplied with fixings
• 4 columns included on the 4", 6" and 8" sizes; 8 columns on the 10" and 12" for even load spread
• Ribbed beaded profile printed at high resolution to keep the fluting crisp and defined
• Configure single or multiple columns to suit the tier and the design
• Durable, wipe-clean Eco PLA that holds its shape under load

FAQs

How many columns come with each size?
The 4", 6" and 8" separators include 4 columns, and the 10" and 12" include 8 columns. Every set also comes with 2 utility plates and fixings. You can use as few or as many of the columns as your design calls for.

How tall are the columns?
Choose 4" tall or 6" tall at each diameter, so you can set the gap between tiers to suit the cake.

Is it strong enough to support a cake?
Yes. The plates and columns are printed in durable Eco PLA and designed to carry tiered cakes safely when set up level and centred. For tall or heavy builds, dowel your tiers as normal and spread the load across more columns.

Why does it cost more than a basic pillar set?
This is an original Prop Options design, printed to order in food-safe, professional-grade material and supplied ready to tier. You are paying for a true, level fit and a finish that photographs well, not a generic moulded pillar.

How do I clean it?
Wipe clean with warm soapy water only. Avoid abrasive cloths and detergents, and do not put it in the dishwasher. Please wash before first use.

Can I mix it with your other column designs?
Yes. The Smooth, Beaded and Ribbed Beaded columns share the same plate system, so you can build a consistent set or mix profiles across a project.
