I have a 3 tiered wedding cake to make. It will be 3 tiers stacked on top of each other my question is do I put cake boards under each layer? I know i have to put a big dowel all the way through all 3 layers but i was confused on the cake board part?

TIA

Yes. You put a board between each layer. And you dowel each layer too.

Thank you so much. I know that was a stupid question but I was not sure and did not want the cake to fall into each layer........

Does anyone know if there is a tutorial on stacking cakes or doweling cakes?
