I wanted to try the pumpkin cake made by stacking two bundt cakes. For those of you who have made this cake, is it very stable? Do you put any support in it?
Thanks! ![]()
I havent done that cake, but looks like if you dowel rod it it would be fine are you moving it after you put it together?? make sure you put a strong dam inbetween the layers, Hope this helps
What Jade said is right on![]()
The general rule of thumb is use dowels for every 4" of heighth. Soooo if those bundt cakes a like 3" then you should be safe not putting supports in. The use of kabob sticks will keep the two pieces from sliding apart - not support the weight of one on top of the other.
I did one and I used dowels; I was transporting it well over 60 miles and didn't want to take any chances. I had torted the layers so each layer probably was close to 4" in height. When I constructed the cake, I put the top cake on its own board because the cakes were two different flavors, so they were easier to separate and serve.
