structure will definitely be the key. on my castle cake I dowelled the heck out of it and was still nervous moving it!
Here is the link to Duff's website(Charm city Cakes) with the boot cake! Jen

Thank you Doug! I am making this tonight. I sure hope I can pull it off. I'm just nervous when people pick up their cake. I usually drop it off so I feel in control until it gets to it's final destination. I have this fear that the cake will fall over while they are driving it. Also, how do you cut into a cake like this? Do you start cutting until you get to the board and then pull the board off and cut the next layer?

i'd do 2 dowels all the way through for extra measure
to serve -- yep, just like a wedding cake -- start w/ top most section (tier), cut and serve, remove board, and attack the next section, etc.
looking forward to the pics!
