I'm going to attempt my first stacked cake. I have lots of questions before I start though!!!! Do you always use multiple 2" cakes stacked together and then frosted or would a 3" cake work if I don't need that thick of a layer (just wondering if the 2" cakes would provide a stronger base/more stability)? How large of a cake and how many layers make it necessary to use extra support? Are dowel rods difficult to use? Could someone give me the basics and some helpful tips???? Thanks so much!!!

Been doing a lot of reading on here and i think i've been able to answer most of my own questions now...sorry about that! thanks so much for looking though!

No problem...feel free to ask any questions....don't consider anything dumb or trivial.....we will try to point you at least to the right link for instructions......

good luck!
