My First Stacked Cake
This was a test cake for a wedding ( was going to just put fresh flowers on it)...turns out I am not making the cake and I am sooo relieved. My questions after doing it are: Even w/a good amount of bc, I felt like I could still "see" the cake thru the sides, does it just need more bc?, also, how many layers do most of you do per tier? My top tier came out too tall. I couldn't believe how much work it was! I have a new appreciation for weddin cakes that's for sure!
It looks great. Very smooth icing. As far as seeing the cake, for me it happens sometimes when I don't make my spatula straight while I'm icing the sides. So, I can see the cake still sometimes.
I think you should post your questions in the forum! They are so helpfull! I think it looks great though, very smooth sides. As far as being able to see the cake through the icing, my guess would be that you just need more BC or that your BC is too thin.
I think it looks pretty darn good!
