I just filled my cake with strawberry filling I did a simple syrup but I just think by Sunday it will be soggy?

OK now to the horror I made a 14inch square cake I tried to torte it with the stupd lg wilton cake leveler and it botched my cake. It's just so uneven right now I have to load the buttercream on top just to make a go of it. But now I don't know if the cake will be soggy or not by sunday and I am thinking maybe I should start baking right now.

OK soggy or not?

If it's for you it's o.k. If it's for a costumer. Nope. Try again.

Depends on how much you put on it. Did you soak it? If you did then it may be soggy. If you didn't over do it I think it will just keep the cake moist.

Buttercream has covered many lopsided cakes for me.

Great, it's for a baby shower! I'll have to start baking.

I agree with Joanne, especially if it's a scratch cake - it won't be soggy it'll just be moist.

And b/c really does work wonders for lopsided cakes - you should have seen last years 3d Easter Lamb

Well I got a cake in the oven now. I figured I would rather be safe than sorry. I have been looking forward to this cake for a while, it's for my very best friend's shower and I wanted it to be really nice. I thought I could get a jump start by frosting today because tomorrow I have to go and set up the house the shower is in and I will be up tomorrow night decorating. This is going to be a long weekend.

just my 2 cents worth..but everytime I use my large wilton cutter I have had to actually go back over with my small wire one. The large one doesn't level right, but sometimes it is hard to start the wire one. so I start with the large and end with the wire lol. Makes no sense right? lol

As far as I am concerned anything WILTON is out for me .The leveller is a waste of time. Try baking a bit more so it rises abobe the tine and then when cooled plce bake in the tin or on a book in the tin and level with a bread knife leaning the knife on the edges of the tin a bit tricky with the middle but this way it is not crooked!

Take LeeAnn's advice WOW her cakes are awesome and I bet they are as level as you can get them.....about how much do you fill the pan to get it to rise that much LeeAnn? TIA

I have a small Wilton leveler, an I've never had a problem with it. it works beautifully. I use it to level and torte my cakes.

Yes the small one is fine but the larger one is so flexible that it bends!!!I fill over 3/4.
