That's really interesting. I've never seen that around here. I kinda' like the filling best of all - it makes the cake worth eating for me. So I'd be disappointed in a cake without filling. That puts a lot of pressure on the icing to be exquisitely good, doesn't it?!

icon_lol.gif or the cake to be both moist and incredibly delicious....nothing more than basic buttercream and pound cake...both elements good though...

I like filling as well and many, thinner layers of cake...

I haven't used SPS yet, so like I said; I'm really not the expert... BUT I've seen no reason offered by anyone that would convince me not to cut the pillars. I've read lots of other threads where others have mentioned cutting the pillars without any problem. If anyone has actually had a problem cutting the pillars I would love to hear it! icon_lol.gif Please don't feel the need to repost previous comments, as I have read the entire thread thumbs_up.gif
