I'm just wondering how many layers you use for your cakes. Two? Three? More?

It depends for me. Sometimes one layer torted. Sometimes two layers. Sometimes I'll do two layers and torte both of them.

boonenati - How do you keep the cakes from sliding when you have that many layers of filling? Do you have to make sure they're well chilled before putting the top layers on? I did a lemon curd filled cake today (only 2 layers) and the top layer almost slid right off when I was icing it!! I'm thinking I didn't let the curd cool down enough....

Thanks Nati. Good to know for next time I try layers!!

Usually 2 and filled once. Except for sheet cakes. I just make one layer, tort and fill.

Standard round and squares 2 layers, sheets anywhere from 1 -3 layers, depends how many servings people want!

I ususally bake 2 cakes and tort both of them. I like having the height.

I usually have 2 cakes. But it really depends on what kind of cakes I am doing. Sometimes I might have 3 or just one. I tort them sometimes. Really depends on what look I'm going for.

It depends on how many servings I need. I generally start with one layer and torte twice for 3 layers of cake, 2 layers of filling. I really like the look once the cake is cut.

2 layers torted and filled to make 4 layers of cake and 3 layers of filling.

i usually bake it up to pretty much fill the apn and them torte twice...
