My sheet cake stuck to the bottom of the pan and iso of course the bottom is in a bunch of pieces. I put it back together like a puzzel and flipped it over. It looks ok but I am wondering if I shold still frost it and use it. Will it fall aprt more? Will my customer notice when she slices the cake? PLEASE HELP ASAP!

You are going to have to make a new cake. I did that once and then iced over it. When the cake was cut it all started to fall apart.

I also agree with the other posters. It's bad business to sell an inferior product. You will be saving yourself grief down the road, when she compliments you instead of complains.

Best! icon_biggrin.gif

I would also rebake the cake. Always give your customers your finest work.

Well depending on how bad it crumbled --I mean I have 'glued' zillions of cakes back together and sold them. It sounds like you put the pieces back together but you have to ice it ie, 'glue it' all together so it does not re-crumble apart. But if it's just an easy fix and the cake is sound and is not crumbling go ahead.

Idea for you--use parchment on the bottom of the pan going forward.

I would also rebake, maybe you can use this one for cake balls?

I knew I was going to have to rebake. I was in a breif period of denial and had to hear it from someone else. The cake is for my supervisor's son's wedding rehersal dinner so I pretty much need it to be perfect. I do appreciate everyone's honest suggestions!
