Hi all,
I am debating if I should attempt to trim the sides of my 14" round chocolate cake. The actual cake layer has a bulge that I noticed while it was cooling. I have leveled the tops of a cake but never attempted the sides. Any tricks for keeping it straight? Should I trim before I place it on other 14" layer?
Thank you.

definitly trim it, I often have to trim sides so that the layers match (can't figure out how it happens when the pans are identical). Use a sharp serrated knife held straight up and down and go slow, a little trim at a time. HTH

Yup -- that's what I do too - almost always have to trim the sides with a long serated knife.
