Description
10 Inch Clear Cake Dome Lids for Display, Takeaway and Transport
In stock. Showcase larger celebration cakes, cheesecakes, layered sponges and premium desserts with these GPI Actipack 26DXN03 clear cake domed lids. Supplied in a bulk pack of 160 lids, they are suitable for bakeries, cafés, patisseries, dessert shops, caterers and food retailers preparing cakes for chilled display, customer collection or takeaway.
Each clear dome has a stated size of 10 x 3 inches. The transparent construction keeps cakes and decorative finishes visible while helping reduce direct contact with icing, fruit, chocolate and other toppings during normal display and handling.
The approximately 3-inch dome height provides useful clearance for many larger decorated cakes, cheesecakes, gateaux and dessert tarts. Always check the full height of the completed cake before closing the pack, especially when using tall piping, fruit arrangements, chocolate decorations or cake toppers.
This listing contains clear cake dome lids only. Black cake bases are not included. Complete the presentation pack with the matching GPI Actipack 26DXN30 Black Cake Base, 10 Inch – Pack of 160.

Suitable for 10-Inch Cakes, Cheesecakes and Gateaux
The clear dome is suitable for appropriately sized cakes and desserts that benefit from visible presentation and protection from direct contact.
Typical applications include:
- Ten-inch round celebration cakes
- Birthday and anniversary cakes
- Cheesecakes
- Layered sponge cakes
- Gateaux and mousse cakes
- Chocolate and ganache cakes

Decorative piping, side finishes, fruit, chocolate pieces and cake toppers can increase the overall dimensions of a cake. Check both the width and height of the completed product before fitting the dome.
Clear Visibility for Chilled Cake Displays
The transparent dome allows customers and staff to view cakes without opening the packaging. This makes it useful for chilled retail cabinets, patisserie counters and customer collection areas where presentation and quick product identification are important.
Clear presentation can help:
- Showcase icing, fruit and decorative toppings
- Highlight cake layers, colours and premium finishes
- Allow staff to identify products and orders quickly
- Support attractive chilled counter displays
- Allow customers to inspect products before purchase
- Reduce unnecessary opening during order checks
Product, ingredient, allergen, price or branding labels may be applied where required. Position labels carefully so they do not unnecessarily obstruct the view of the cake.
Pair with the Matching 10-Inch Black Cake Base
These clear dome lids are designed for use with the GPI Actipack 26DXN30 Black Cake Base.
The black base provides a firm platform beneath the cake, while the clear dome creates an enclosed presentation for chilled display, collection and takeaway.

Cake Packing and Handling Guidance
- Place the compatible black base on a clean, flat and stable surface
- Position the cake centrally on the base
- Check that the cake and decorations remain within the available space
- Allow sufficient clearance for piped icing, fruit and side decorations
- Chill delicate cakes before packing where appropriate
- Lower the clear dome carefully over the cake
- Align the dome evenly around the complete base
- Check the connection before moving the assembled pack
- Carry the complete container from underneath the base
- Keep the cake level during display and transport
The dome helps shield the cake during normal display and handling, but it is not designed to support the weight of the product. Always lift and carry the assembled pack from underneath the base.
Add an Outer Cake Box for Delivery
For longer journeys, event catering or delivery, an appropriately sized cardboard cake box can provide additional protection around the assembled Actipack container.
Browse our Cardboard Cake Boxes and compare the internal width and height with the complete base-and-dome pack before selecting a box.
The outer box should provide enough room for the assembled container without placing pressure on the clear dome or cake decorations.
