Okay so I found some photos on a website that might be handy to all of you. Here ya go!!

thank you

thank-you. btw the cake (green and white one) is amazing!!!!

Wow, thank you so much for posting these! I've always wondered about the dowels that go through multiple layers. It seems you can just hammer them through cardboard cake circles? Can you put your cake directly on the cardboard cake circle or do you need to cover it first? I guess pizza comes directly on cardboard so it should be okay.

Yes, the green & white cake is spectacular! (sigh) someday.....

Thanks again!

WOW! THANKS!
Definitely saving this!

Thanks! My sisters birthday is Tuesday and I want to make a topsy turvy cake for her. Right on time!!!!!

Your all so welcome. I do agree the green cake is beautiful!! Its not my creation though...although I wish it was.

Also as far as covering the board i know of people who don't cover the board and I also know some who buy the boards with the wax on them and use those to. You know those ready to use boards that they sell at Michaels.

Anywho hope you enjoy ttfn

I'm a little confused. Do you carve into the cake so the layer that is going to be above will fit?

Awesome! Thanks for sharing! I've been wanting to make a topsy-turvy cake!

Wow, that green cake is awsome I don't know if one day I will be able to accomplish such a great cake but just in case,.
Thank you

I have tried to look at the tutorial for the topsy turvy cake but the link is dead. If possible will you re-link to this? Thanks!!
