I don't know, unless there's a worry about stability. I have the Cake Bible, and the author says she's transported a stacked wedding cheesecake before, with no problems. You'll have to try one, let us know how it turns out...

I have never thought about it but now that you bring it up, I am sure it must be because the cheesecakes cannot withstand the weight on top. I would assume they would just collapse into one big heap.

One would think that since the weight is supposed to be on dowels, that it would work the same as regular cake. I imagine I'd be more likely to try it with the stress-free cake system than dowels, though. Anybody ever tried it?

I would think with enough heavy doweling it should withold the weight, no?

I would think if you put dowel's in that they would crack the crust and that would make the cheese cake unstable

I don't think that cheesecake is strong enough. the dowels would probably only make it more poreous (sp). and crack it. too bad. If you try it and it works out though- let me know!

They can be stacked. If you frost with whitechocolate cream cheese buttercream, you will never know it is a cheese cake. Stack exactly the same as a regular cake but it must stay refrigerated as long as possible. I use straws as dowels and have transported them stacked. Caution: inform your brides that when they cut the cake, it will not look pretty. It is not possible to get a nice slice of a cheesecake if it has even been out for an hour. It still tastes great but looks like a little puddle on the plate
