Please help asap!! I was asked to make a 3D standup snowman cake (tomorrow), and just got the pan. The instructions show making a spice cake, but I want to make a white or choc. cake instead. Will the consistency work or do I need a heavier cake like a pound cake? Also the pan says it's a 10cup....does that mean I'll need to make a double cake recipe? Has anyone made this cake with the Williams-Sonoma pan?
Also, the instructions show dusting it with powdered sugar or using coconut, but I want to frost instead.....will a buttercream icing work? If anyone out there can help, I'd be SO grateful!! Thanks!!

I hope I put in the link properly - I think we are all waiting for a succes story - I will be baking mine tonight and frosting tomorrow - we'll see! I am just using regular mixes.....
Thanks for the feedback. I'm NOT going to try the 3D today, so I need to come up with something else......maybe just the front part of that cake pan on a sheet cake. Think that would work?
Not as glad as I am. 
As it is, I'm feeling good about the way it came out instead of being VERY frustrated and unhappy with the results trying to make that thing stand up! This site is a lifesaver! Thanks again and Merry Christmas!!
Wow! My mother gave me this cake pan for a Christmas present! I haven't been ablt to make it yet. Well, I am gonna try to make it, maybe next week. I'll let u know IF it comes out , lol. The problem with selling this cake is the transporting it to your clients...I went to my local shop where I get all my cake boxes and equip and they had NO box that would fit that cake! So, I don't know how else I could actually sell this cake unless I made it in the person's house, lol. 
i made a cake with the cake pan this Christmas.. i had to try it two times.... the first time the cake crumbled to pieces within 5 minutes of standing up. second cake stood up and was delicious. you definitely need a heavy cake- i did a devils food cake.http://www.pinterest.com/pin/71987294017740231/
i decorated with white sugar crystal sprinkles.
