IS THERE ANYWAY YOU CAN TELL IF YOUR CAKE IS LEVEL OR NOT... I DO NOT HAVE A GREAT EYE TO REALLY TELL IF IT IS LEVEL OR NOT.. OF COURSE I CAN TELL IF IT IS WAY OFF BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE IT IS NOT LOPSIDED!
Do you mean your layers, or the cake as a whole? If you're wondering about your layers, you might want to invest in a cake leveler (made by Wilton). It's an adjustable "saw", really cheap (less than $3 at Michael's or Hobby Lobby), and works 
I agree. I have one and it works great. I also use it to torte my sheet cakes.
You could use a line-level. It is a tiny level you can purchase at any hardware store for under $2. The "saw" leveler is ok for sheet cakes, but you really have to be careful the surface you are cutting on is level and you keep the blade straight!!!!! The big one is closer to $20. Sweet Celebrations has a better one, but it is $$$$.
line levels are nice, but I prefer the bullseye level. it gives you indication of whether the cake is level in all directions, not just in the direction you place it.

Get a small plastic level if you want to be really precise. I've been thinking about getting one myself. Hubby has a metal one that's about 8 inches long that is the perfect size, but it's a bit heavy. Just make sure you have one that's dedicated for your cake!
You could also try just setting a ruler on top and maybe you can eye the ruler better than your cake top.
They sell the replacement bubbles for levels. They are about 2-3" long and probably weigh less than a bag of marshmellows. Just look in your hardware store near the levels. I know at Menard's in my area they are right next to the 4' levels.
You could also look at getting a laser level-i haven't used one but i thought i saw on a post somewhere on the internet someone used one to level their cakes.
Just make sure when using a level you have your cake sitting on a level stand or table.

Thanks GALS!! I went and got a big saw from Wilton and it worked perfectly. Soon I will have to go buy one of those laser level thingys.. I think that will help alot as well. You guys are so great with your responses... I have leveled all of my cakes and so far so good...Now comes the tricky part putting on butter cream as smooth as it will go and to put on the fondant and then it will be done.... I just pray that all goes well!!!!!! WISH ME LUCK!!!!
I have a little level, it's called a torpedo level, that I use to make sure my cakes are level after filling. It was under $10 at the hardware store and made of plastic - not heavy at all!
just remember the counter you are set the cake on has to be level right? here in So Cal. Things do settle and sometime even rock and roll so things manage to get a little lopsided and stay that way.
