For 4th of July I plan on making a cake with these sides http://confectionsofamasterbaker.blogspot.com/2010/02/ps-i-cake-you.html It will have red velvet cake and white chocolate mousse layers. But I'm not sure how to make sure the sides stay attached to the bottom cake layer?? Do I just add a layer of mousse between the sides and cake? Should I add layer of buttercream? Any Ideas? TIA!!

Idea from a hobbyist, i have never done this before, but i would just attach it with a layer of mousse....but thats just what i would try.. play with it...make a practice cake and see if it would work, if it dont work it was just a practice cake and you can try again....practice it on a cheap box cake mix though... that way your not out much..

oh, and welcome to CC theres so much you can learn from this site, check the forums out there are lots of free info, and tutorials...

show that it's the mousse and the topping (chilled until firm) that hold it all together.

OOPS! I never noticed that! Thanks!!!
