Here is a tutorial Fairytale did. It is for a hatbox cake, but she explains in it how she had the lid propped open. You could incorporate that into your basket prolly=) HTH some, Jen

I don't have any suggestions for you as I have never had to do a cake like this before, but I would like to know the answer as well.

I think you can prop it open with a dowel rod... That's what I'm planning on doing.
