does any one have any of those stacked cakes that are all 1 size bookmarked
the really contemporary look of several same size cakes stacked so they look like a column ???
i would like to do one for an upcoming shower and wanted to research some thoughts , but cant find any in the galleries ( even though I know i have seen some 
)
thanks
This is the first cake I thought of, is this the style you are referring to?

sweetviolent, do you need the directions to the first cake that missyek posted? I have Linday Smith's book with directions for that cake in it. Let me know and I'll scan and email them to you.
This lady has some awesome ones:

wow there are some really great cakes-cookiecreations- my biggest question would be construction- are they just regular layers doweled and stacked like any other stacked cake ???
These are pretty cool looking ~ how would you calculate number of servings on this type of cake?
simple:
number of servings for that diametre of cake x number of cakes used for construction

Wow this is the first time I have ever seen or heard of this style of cake and I must say I'm impressed but I am also curious to know how the heck would you cut one of these cakes? Can anyone satisfiy my curiousity pls? I would really like to make one of these is there one central dowel in the middle?

Those cakes I would imagine are cut like a doll cake is cut because they are tall like a doll cake. The first cake mentioned, the Lindy Smith one, is I think three 6 inch cakes stacked. I don't believe you would need a dowel in the center, at least I wouldn't put one in. In her book "Celebrate with a Cake", Lindy Smith goes into the construction of this cake.

I'll have to look in my book from Lindy, but I would think that if you did something like four 2" layers, that it would essentially be 2 cakes togther, so the top cake would be on its own cake board and dowel the bottom cake like you would do any other type of stacked cake. Just matter of preventing the entire thing from colapsing and sinking into itself.

Yeah, could not remember if it was three or four layers... Been awhile since I looked at the instructions for that cake.
I was just reading this (Lindy) book yesterday at Barnes and Noble because I remember the picture of the cake. It's basically two 6 inch (4 inches high) cakes stacked together. There is a cake board in between these two cakes. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think dowels were used to stack the cakes. I'm sorry if I don't remember exactly because I had 3 or 4 cake decorating cakes in front of me and very little time to read everything thoroughly.
Okay, looking up the instructions... yep, she uses hardboard cake boards and dowels. Huh! I wouldn't have thought that cake needed all that much support. Oh well...
cookiecreations, I know that you offered this to sweetviolent, but would you mind sending them to me too? I have a cake request for this design due the end of May, and was Googling for this design. TIA.
Sorry I was away from my computer. Yes, wolfley29 I'll email you and sweetviolent the instructions. I just scanned all 4 pages from Lindy's book. Oh, send me your email addresses.
