Hi,
I just got a question about tier cakes. When you put the seond one do you need to put some dowels in and do you put cake board on every cake when you stack them up on top?
Thank you,
pinklady..
Thank you for your time and your help.

Agreed! Not only that, but, how the heck do you cut and serve an 8-inch tall cake???[/quote]
You cut to the middle cake board, serve it as a layer and then remove the cake board and cut the botton 4".
I dowel and cake board everything. I made a cake recently that was very simple, so I thought, no dowels....well I ended up having to take the cake apart and dowel becasue the bottom layer started to blow out!

Howdy Neighbor!
Just to clarify, the comment I was replying to suggested a two tier cake WITHOUT SUPPORT, hence my question about cutting an 8-inch tall cake.
