You're going to do 4 tiers in 1 1/2 days?  You might want to re-think this.

AWell I can bang out a four tier in an evening and a few hours the next morning, but it won't be detailed at all...lol, and just buttercream.

OP, This just can't be a legitimate question.

Oh Shanter, I see your point.  Pretty ridiculous post for someone who just sighed up today.  My mind is on my devil cake adventure.  shouldn't have taken it so seriously and reposted my recipe.:? 

 

Yeah Mimi, they sure won't figure out how to do that will they.

What I suggest doing in the future, is Google recipes that are what you looking for. Stick to the top three results you get, BUT check the reviews of all of them that look good. See what others say. Does it seem to be good for people that try it? Does it have complainants? And are those complaints because the person altered the recipe but still feel it's a bad recipe because it didn't turn out (if so, don't pay attention to those)? This is a good way to get some work under your belt and learn to sniff out a good recipe when you see one, rather than just wait for people to hand them to you.
