In the world of flowers and floral art, every detail matters. A proper foundation can make the difference between a simple arrangement and a true masterpiece. That’s why it’s time to expand your creative horizon with an innovative product that not only makes your work easier but is also eco-friendly and versatile: the Sideau® Cake Dummy from Agra-Wool International.
A New Dimension in Floral Design
Thinking about a round base that complements natural shapes and organic lines? The Sideau® Cake Dummy offers florists a creative and functional way to create arrangements that stand out. Whether you're working on a festive table centerpiece, a romantic wedding piece, or a special focal point, this dummy elevates your design to the next level.

The Power of Organic Simplicity
The round forms are available in four sizes, from 10cm compact to 35 cm large. This ensures you always have the right size for any occasion. The biggest advantage? Thanks to its quick water-absorbing ability, the product is ready to use in no time. A brief dunk in water creates a stable, moist base that securely supports your arrangement: no air bubbles, no frustration - just fast and efficient work.

Durable and Reusable
What truly sets this dummy apart is its eco-friendliness. Made from 97% basalt and a plant-based binder derived from sucrose, it is entirely natural and biodegradable. After use, you can compost the dummy, allowing you to deliver beautiful work while contributing to a cleaner planet. And the best part? You can reuse the Dummy simply by flipping it over or reinforcing it with mesh, so you’re not limited to disposable products.

Creativity Without Limits
The round shape offers countless creative possibilities. Consider flowing, organic lines, creating symmetrical pieces, or designing arrangements with a natural look that’s challenging to achieve with traditional shapes.

Thanks to its natural texture and appearance, your flowers will seem more lively, while the base remains sturdy and reliable.

Inspiring for Every Florist
Being suitable for both beginners and experienced professionals, the Sideau® Cake Dummy invites experimentation. Combine different materials, work with asymmetry, add natural elements, and create unique pieces that truly catch the eye. It’s a tool that not only speeds up and simplifies your work but also increases your artistic freedom. Check out this blog on how to create two fast arrangements by Valentin Candia Mahn.
