cakestand
Tiered pastry display
A cakestand is a raised platform for displaying cakes and pastries, typically a flat plate mounted on a pedestal.
The elevation shows off the cake and makes slicing easier.
Fancier versions have tiers for serving multiple items at once: The afternoon tea arrived on a three-tiered cakestand.
