In album: barrel

Four tier chocolate fondant covered wedding cake with two double barrel tiers and pear gumpaste ribbons. Two chocolate cake layers filled with cookies n cream, chocolate smbc and chocolate ganache, and two almond cake layers with almond smbc, chocolate smbc and raspberry fillings, and chocolate ganache. The bride's mother did all the wedding flowers and provided the flowers to match the room as well as the pillar separator. TFL!

Like HobbyCaker, my mouth was watering reading the description too! :D That cake looks sooo tall!! How is the pillar not digging into the cake? Did you put dowels for support? I am in awe!! xo

Gorgeous, but I too would like to know how you stabilized it.

Thank you all!! The bottom tier had very thick dowels; the second from the bottom had thick dowels that were very particularly measured and placed where the rim of the pillar hit. Then I doweled the two together. Also, the bottom half of the double cakes were doweled. I never used a level as much as for this cake!!

Your cake is beautiful! Where did you get the brooch for the bow?

The bride provided the brooches, and I'm pretty sure she had ordered them online...

Love it. When you do a double height tier, how is it cut?

babysteps22 10/20/10 at 11:33am

Not sure what others do, but I covered the top of each of the double barrel bottom halves with fondant and advised they cut a circle around the perimeter to separate the two cakes, then cut as usual. :)
