Tiered Cake Question - Would This Look Strange?
Decorating By TerriLynn Updated 9 Nov 2010 , 2:26pm by TerriLynn
I am a hobby baker making my first baby shower cake in December, but I'm already planning. 
The cake topper is porcelain and is 4" in diameter (round). I planned to make an 8" bottom layer and a 6" top layer to put the topper on. Would 6" be too small for a 4" topper? Would that look strange? Should I make a 10" bottom layer and an 8" top? Any suggestions you have would be most welcome. I have learned so much on this site so far. THANKS!!!

Thank you!! If I use a 6" top, what would be the best size for the bottom? (Can you tell I'm a little new to this? ha ha). Thanks SO MUCH for your reply.

If you look in my photos, there is a two tier chocolate cake (the Halo cake) that is a 6/9.
Have fun and be sure to post photos once you're done with the cake, the topper in porceline sounds neat!
