Greetings All,
I was asked to make a unique wedding cake for someone (We went to HS together). She sent me a picture (See attached pic) of what she wants. How would I use beer cans as columns without the cake going timber? I need some ideas, please. I may or may not do it. I'm still giving it some thought.

Thanks in advance for your ideas~
LL

I would think you could cut a hole in the top and bottom of the cans and slip them over the real support columns.

I did a quick google search and found there are not too many of these cakes around...yet!
It seems it might be up and coming, you are on to something creative and new!

On my search, I found a caker here at cc who did this already. I would attempt to stack it the same way this caker says she did in the description of the cake.
