Hi ladies!
I just posted a video in Youtube on how I stack my cakes. I am doing a 4 tier cake on this video. This system works for me, I know everybody has their way. But traveling with stack cakes is a big task and this heasn't fail me..
Hope you enjoy it!
Edna 
Thanks so much Edna! I've been dying to try stacking a cake and your videos are the best!!!
That was great. I have to watch it several times more. I kept looking at what you were doing and enjoying the misic, I forgot to read some of the words before it was too late!!! 
I have a quick question, how do you level after inserting the dowels without messing up the BC? Is yours not crusting or, are you just that fast?
Thanks so much for sharing your gift with us!

I am pretty fast, but the video moves faster!...I level just the area where the next cake goes, so it doesnt have to be perfectly smooth since the next cake will cover that. Just make sure to stay within the size
of what the next tier size will be..

I've never seen cardboard dowels before. Where do you get them?
Judi
They are not that easy to find. I dont usually do the orders, I would have to find out!..But plastic are really nice. Even PVC that is around that size works great!
Edna
do you have a buttercream recipe you might want to share? i looks so smooth and perfect.
Thanks
shelly
thanks edna i just looked at your sight i hope to someday make cakes as beautiful as yours...
Edna I found your videos on Youtube the other night and love them! You make it look so easy but put so much information in there to help. I can't wait to check out your latest.
Oh by the way Your Cakes Are Amazing!
That was soo cool. Speed stacking! Ok so I'm assuming that when you place your fingers on the smaller cake, then the larger cake, before you dowel you are measuring where to put the dowels. Could you explain that process, how do you get it so precise? It happened so fast I'm not sure what I am seeing there? Thanks so much for posting the video. You're amazing.
Thanks Eda. This will really help me for next weekend. I am making a stacked cake for my DS's birthday. I am a visual person and your video made it so simple for me.
I have a question, why do you put wax paper on the top and the bottom of the cake board?
Thanks
Wow! Thanks for posting the video. I have a question about your buttercream recipe ... do you use it as written to smooth ice a whole cake? Or do you add extra liquid to thin it out a bit? I haven't tried your recipe yet, but I've been looking for a really good one with both butter and shortening and I can't wait to try it. You're so helpful ... it's much appreciated!!
Wow Edna... another wonderful video... You are amazing.. 
Now for the quesrtion........ 
You stated to cut the dowels (love those cardboard dowels btw) 1/4" below the buttercream height.. So.. then you remove the icing on top of the cake to the level of the dowels? Sort of how you remove some cake to stack a topsy turvy.. Is that correct? I hope that question made sense..

I move fast and I measure fast!...I use my fingers to measure..I do this a lot even with sewing. But if you are not good at eye measuring you could use the pan of the cake that goes on top and mark it with a toothpick. Or you can measure the cake with a ruler and mark the size of it on the cake.

What a fantastic video tutorial. Thanks so much!!!

The cake board soaks grease..to avoid this we put wax paper on both sides so it stays stronger. You can use a glue gun for this.

Love the video.You did it again .I have watched it 5 times already .I love the fact that it reassures me that professionlas also have accidents. I almost always do some thing to my finished cakes .Once I dropped my 6inch while stacking ,other times I poke them while stacking.
Thank you so much.
