I use a large cookie sheet dusted w/ powdered sugar.

slips in relatively easily.

I cheat and use tip 10 and polk it into the top here and there and pipe the filling in that way.. then ice it..

Sometimes you just want to say, duh! Why didn't I think of that?! Ha ha.

I just did a huge 12x18 sheet cake and I used these HUGE spatulas I bought at a Japanese commercial restaurant store. The cookie sheet would have been much easier! icon_rolleyes.gif

Thanks Doug for sharing those little tidbits of cake wisdom that may take people like me a few tries before I figure it out on my own. OK, well quite a few more tries anyway! LOL.
