For my SIL's mom, I had the most fun making this cake. I had to travel an hour with it so I took all the pieces to put on the cake at the party. My husband carried the cake out to the car in my carrier and I told him to put a hand under the cake because it was so heavy, of course he didn't listen. When we arrived at my SIL he grabbed the cake up again with one hand and I repeated my warning. I turned and got the pieces for the cake out of the car and heard a big thud. I slowly turned around to find the bottom fell out of the cake carrier, thank goodness it fell straight down. The whole cake moved 1/2" on the board and the bottom half of the icing slid off the sides, but I was able to repair, lucky for my husband, if you look closely at the pictures you can see signs of stress in the icing.
