I'm going to make my first tiered cake this week-end. I've read through the past postings on how to do this and I think I can follow the directions a.k. My question is, do the wooden dowel rods produce splinters after they are cut? Do they affect the taste of the cake at all?

I read somewhere about soaking them, but have yet to do a stacked cake using dowels.

There are a couple of threads around here about handy tools to cut dowels with. I use a Craftsman something or other to cut, give them a couple of swipes across sandpaper to be sure the ends are completely flat, then wrap them in contact paper.
