I've done cakes for family/friends and didn't really consider this but...should I be covering my cake circles with wax paper or something else before I put cake on (I have been smearing frosting to hold cake)? Wouldn't the paper tear & possibly end up in the cake? Don't mean to sound silly but wondered if I've been doing it wrong?? I usually do the cake base with fondant but the circles??Thanks for your thoughts!

Should cake circles be "covered"?

but...if you stack the layers, I assume if you tape paper over the board, you have to place another paper circle on the bottom layer to "food safe" that from the tape? How do you keep the wrapped paper & tape from tilting that top layer? (Not sure if I explained that right but when I've covered boards, they never seem to be as flat, but close.) Does the small amount of paper not really make a difference?
