Abstract: A free-standing disposable cake protector with a plurality of extendable foldable legs, a transparent top panel and a flexible transparent side wall. The top panel includes sockets capable of accepting birthday candles. The extension legs can be extended or retracted to accommodate the height of the cake being protected. The foldable legs with the fixedly attached side panel provide means to transport and store the cake protector in compact flat configuration. The cake protector provides protection from candle wax and from exposure to saliva expelled by a person blowing candles out when the cake protector is in unfolded configuration.

Abstract: A disposable cake protector with a main frame, a plurality of foldable legs, a plurality of extension legs, a top panel and a flexible side wall. The top panel is rigid and transparent and has a C shaped perimeter configuration capable of snapping onto the main frame. The top panel includes sockets capable of accepting birthday candles. The foldable legs are hollow and have a C shaped top portion that allows them to be rotationally connected to the main frame. The extension legs each slidably fit within each the hollow leg. The flexible side wall is attached to the inner wall of each the foldable leg so that when the foldable legs are unfolded the flexible side wall unfolds to match the side wall of the cake that it is protecting. The extension legs can be extended or retracted to accommodate the height of the cake being protected.
