What Size Is Best For Square Cakes?
Decorating By sugar-fairy Updated 19 Apr 2006 , 5:06pm by sugar-fairy
One of our customers has made an odd, or at least very specific, demand. She wants a stacked square anniversary cake and insists the top tier be 6 inches and the bottom tier be 14 inches. I'm having a tough time deciding which is more aesthetically pleasing.. 6, 8, 12, 14 or 6, 8, 10, 14.
I'm opting more for the latter so that at the very least the larger tier would be near the bottom and not the middle. Still, a 4 inch gap between cake layers seems like a lot. Any thoughts on this? 
According to my last Wilton class (course 3), 4" is the difference in cake tiers that you should do.

Using graphing paper is an awesome idea, mmdd! 
Unfortunately, the bride insists on having 4 stack tiers...and that they be approx. 4 inches tall...one burgendy rose, one gold rose, two purple orchids and so forth. We'll all be happy when we no longer have to deal with her.
