My sister in law wants a four tier wedding cake with every guest name printed on it. How would i space the names.? and keep a straight line? help please.....

I hope the guest list is short!! I don't know about the writing straight or spacing I can't even do that on unlined PAPER!

I suggest measuring your tiers circumference and height. Use those measurements on quadrille (quarter inch graph) paper to layout the names, one letter per square. Tape sheets of the paper together to make the size you need to go around each tier. Skip a square or 2 between names in a row. Skip a row between rows of names. Remember to allow for Capital letters, and letters with tails like g and y. Figure out how much space you need to pipe each name. Figure out how many names. It will take some time, but at least you can see how much room it will take and you can see what you are doing that way.

Does that make sense?

I love the cake photo you posted. I have seen cakes with a lot of different words like Love, Hope, Faith, Devotion, etc, but never names. Be sure to post a picture!

Could you print them out on edible paper, adhere to cake and then pipe over it? Or would this interfere with your icing? If your using BC it melts right into it.

I am so bad at writing in icing that I usually do write out what I need using candy melts, stick them in the freezer, then apply them to the BC iced cake. That way, if I mess up a letter, I just pipe another one. Of course, that doesn't help me if the cake is covered in fondant!!
