Does anyone have any hints for doing this? I am making a stacked wedding cake and the bride would prefer not to have borders on each tier.... Thanks so much.

not sure how much time you have but sugarshack shows how to do it flawlessly on her dvd buttercream one

money well spent

I haven't seen the dvd mentioned above, but it has great reviews on here. If you hvae time, give it a shot.

When I get a bride who wants a "simple" cake with no border, I always laugh and tell her, "Oh you want me to work harder on your cake, don't you?" When she gets a shocked look on her face, I then explain how the top/side seam is covered by a border, but if she wants no border, then I have to work EXTRA. HARD. AND LONGER. to get it JUST. PERFECT. I close with, "Oh, it's no big deal! Just part of your wedding cake education!"

But seriously, I want them to KNOW that what THEY call simple, is usually more work for me.
