I made this cake for a 4-year-olds Spiderman themed birthday. Bottom tier is 12" and top tier is 8". I personalized the cake with a (fondant) sculpture of Spiderman and the birthday boy, sitting off the edge of the cake!! I added the number '4' and balls on wire for some height and whimsy. Although.... I had to construct the cake at party site so I couldn't get a 'good' picture before and was kinda uphappy with pic... but I guess we all have pics like that!!! TFL! ~ Jaime
