I'd like to try to attach something on the bottom of my cake boards to raise it up. I'm thinking it would be easier to lift up than just a flat cake board.

Anyone ever done this?

If you do, you might consider using 6 feet (or 7 or 8?) instead of 4 .... 2 in the middle to help prevent middle-cake-sagging.

You can also glue a couple of smaller cake boards underneath the main cake board. I guess just make sure they are bigger than the cake but smaller than the main board.

I do this with all of my boards. I hot glue 3-4 small wooden blocks underneath. Much easier to move the cake around when you can get your fingers under. I use masonite boards, btw.

PinkZiab,

Do you just use scrap pieces of wood or do you buy the blocks somewhere?

I hot glue all those extra little rings I take off my SPS systems. Raised the board just enough to get my chubby fingers under there.
