yes, I am not charging much..b/c I am learning...and NOW,my top layer also sunk...why would this happen? I don't use the box mix,...could I've had added to much baking poweder???...almost crying here
You need to look over your recipe, make sure you followed the directions and re do it. No one deserves, paying, paying only a little, paying whatever to have a cake that's been filled in with bc to hide an improperly constructed cake. It will be a good learning experience. These are some of the things that happen when you accept money. You don't get to say "oh well, they aren't paying much..." It will be good for you.

I defently agree with you..... there is no way I would sell it, while baking I thought the sinking was going to be as much as the amount I was going to cut out to trim..but it didn't turn out like that... please don't miss understand me..i would not cheat anyone...I am even embarressed to have asked how to fix it...I guess a moment of desperation
It is a learning expirience...I double the recipe..one ingredient at a time... I also learned not to wait till the day before the event to bake the cake I've baked cake so many times before for friends and family for free and the first time i charge this happens ...
Thank you for your advice Jamie..
What you're describing might be "tunneling" which is caused by improper mixing.

Yep--a little stressful at times, for sure. I have to rebake two 8" squares tonight because of a goofup late last night. Throws my schedule off wack. Eh...that's what coffee at 3:30 am is for.
