hi everyone, i am making a 2 tier 9"/6" cake for tomorrow, and its my first stacked cake so my question is do i need a support system?? ie are dowels enough to hold it?? both tiers are 4" high, so would i also need to sued a cake board for the 6" as well?? or can i just place it right ontop of the bottom layer, im just worried the weight might make it sink.
thanks in advance!!!

Dowels and a board. Together they make a table for the top cake to sit on. The bottom tier is not supporting the top tier, the dowels and board are. You can make a hidden board...cut a circle the same size or a teensy bit smaller than your top tier so it won't show, but there does have to be a board in there. Makes it easier to serve too.

Yes you need a support system (I like using bubble tea straws instead of dowels because their much easier to cut) and yes you will need a cake board under the 6" as well.
