I plan to make a practice cake for my son's bday, but I have never carved a cake. I will be using the 3D cruiser pan to do this and a pound cake or durable cake recipe to do the cake but how do I carve the top off. I have read you have to do it with the frozen cake, so I have to freeze it before carving? Is this right or could I just do it once cake is cold?
You can also do it with a really cold cake as well.Just take a serated knife and cut the top off like a convertible.

and I also found:
A race car - starting w/9x13x3 base for the car body. Then I thought using a bread loaf pan to bake another cake to trip down and slanted to make windshields, etc./car top
Thank you for the link I guess since I am making the cake in advance it will be cold anyways
Freezing the cake will make it extremely easy to carve. The knife will go through it easily with no crumbs...and the cake will not "give" (for lack of the perfect word) under the weight of the knife...in other words, it will lose its sponge-y-ness. Freeze it if you can.
Thank you I guess I better get to bakin and that will be the first challenge I have never baked in a 3D pan I can barely bake on regular pans!!!LOL
