I lost most of my comments on this photo when I entered the picture in a contest a while back but I had mentioned that transporting this cake can be made simple by cutting a hole in the middle of the cake board under the tree, then when you are ready to transport, slip the whole thing over the base plate of a bundt pan. The core of the bundt pan base offers support while transporting. When you are ready to serve it, just lift it off the bundt base plate. Works great!

I absolulately love this cake, I also have this pan but have never used it. You did an awesome job, but how in the world would you cut to serve it:)

I have found the easiest way to cut this cake is to first make a horizontal cut all the way through the cake about half way up... like you are cutting the top off the tree. Slice that top portion into wedges. What's left can be cut like a bundt cake.
