under the layers of your stacked cakes, card board cake circles or plastic seperator plates. I will be doing a 2 tier stacked spongebob cake (like sugarshacks) for my daughters 3rd birthday and I'm not sure what to use. This isn't my first stacked cake, the castle cake and the mushroom cake in my photos I used cardboard cake circles and I didn't think that they gave my cakes enough support even with a bunch of dowels, plus I didn't like having to cover them to keep them from drawing moisture from the cake. The mushroom cake inpaticular did not travel the 45 minutes down to my in-laws house very well! In my photos you can see that it's leaning slightly. This cake will also be traveling to the same house so I want it to be sturdy! I have never used the plastic plates before and any advice on what kind and how to use them would be greatly appreciated.
How do you keep the cardboard cake circles from drawing moisture? I have the hardest time covering them and then they usually show and I end up having to pipe a border along the edge. How can I prevent this, this why I was thinking of the plastic. Since I've never used them I wasn't sure how they would work.
