I place two cakes up side by side. One half chocolate and the other vanilla and put some kind of a marker on the board till I'm done decorating to indicate which side is which. that way after the cake is frosted I can still remember which side is which. It's easier to handle the half sheet pans and just put them together as a full sheet IMO. I just cut mine in half, but they are not always the same exact size.
Thanks for all of your suggestions. You are all so much help! I love this website! I just have a few other questions...where is the best place to buy a half sheet cake pan and how deep should it be? And also should I layer them? And how do you all transport your cakes? Do you have your own cake boxes? I'mjust really new at this whole thing so any help at all is soo greatly appreciated
well, how I transport them really depends on who I am making them for. If it's for family or an event I'm personally attending, I just use my cake carriers. If I'm donating the cake for an eventi, I'll usually buy a cake box too. I still have to threaten my husband when he does not return cake carriers from things he has taken to work. He's getting better about that though. I get my cake pans mainly from Michaels or our JoAnn's super store and some online. Not sure what you have around there store wise. Good luck!
Please forgive me if this is obvious, but I'm speaking from experience here 
If you're baking this at home make sure the full or half sheet pan will fit in your oven- some oven interiors are smaller than you may realize. A few years ago I was stuck with one at home that wouldn't take my half-sheets!

If this is the case, you may want to make 4 quarters and put them together then ice. You will probably want to get multiple pans if you end up doing it this way.
I prefer the Magic Line pans for square/sheets. You can order them from www.kitchenkrafts.com i have had excellant service with them. If you want to find someone else go to www.froogle.com and search.
I also prefer the 2" pans, that is what I like ... personal preference for you will determine your depths of your pans.
