Large & heavy!

This is an absolutely charming vintage ceramic strawberry shortcake cake keeper, hand-painted and dated 1983.

Designed to resemble a tall, three-layer strawberry shortcake, the large domed cover features textured golden cake layers, generous white whipped-cream icing, and glossy red strawberries throughout. A large strawberry-shaped handle on top completes the playful design.

The removable ceramic dome rests on a coordinating white pedestal cake plate, creating a substantial and eye-catching display piece.
