Has anyone had a problem with the cake plate not attaching to the base? It seems like the screw on mine is not long enough.
 
I haven't had problems with mine. Make sure it's positioned flat on top before you try to turn it. If it doesn't work, you may need to call the HO.
 
Yes, I have had this problem before. It can be frustrating and make it difficult to use the cake plate properly. One solution is to try using a longer screw that fits the base and plate securely. If that does not work, you may need to contact the manufacturer for a replacement or look into purchasing a new cake plate.
