I just made a sheet cake in which I torted and filled it with chocolate hazelnut icing. I had to be so careful removing the top layer so I could put the filling in. I was wondering how do you remove the top layer without it breaking into millions of little cake pieces. I had a little tearing, but I was able to put it together again. I used a cardboard cake holder to slide my top layer off. Then I torted, and added the layer back on by gently pushing it over the cardboard. There must be a easier way. I am attaching my cake, because I am so proud of it.
I've found that throwing the cakes in the freezer for about 15 minutes is enough to keep it from breaking. I'd still recommend using a cake board or something to slide under it just for extra support.
I can do 12" with just my bare hands using this method.
