AI have an order for a bud light sheet cake, it's not this exact one in the link, but the placement of the beer bottles are simiilar. My customer wants 2 actual full bottles of beer, so my question is how would I stick them in a sheet cake and make them lean like that and secure them to where they wouldn't fall over and damage the cake?

sorry It wouldn't let me just attach the photo for some reason, so I had to just use the link.

AYes, I just carved out 2 round holes, the same diameter as the bottom of the beer bottles. I carved all the way down to the cake board, and just stuck the bottles in the holes with a little bit of buttercream. They actually didnt move or fall over like I was expecting them to, but just to be safe I made some sugar ice to put around the beer bottles for a little added support. They didnt move at all during transport.

You can see a picture of my cake here in this link to get an idea of what I am talking about

If that link doesn't work, you can find the picture in my avatar album.

Good luck!! :)
