i was going to go to do 6" and 8" tiers but i need more "shelf" space for the decorations i have already made (and made too big...^@%@%##)

will putting a 6" on top on a 10" look disportionate?

does anyone have any photos they have done using 6" and 10"?

thank you!

it will look great as a 4inch difference works very well, i personally think it looks better than a 2 inch difference, take a look at my pics the sx in the city cake is a 14 10 6 combo...

I like the look of a 6/10 inch stacked cake.

Here's a pic of a 6" and 10" I made. Dont think it looks out of proportion at all, I like the look of it.

Good luck

I like the 6" and 10" look even better than I like 6" and 8".

funny I should come across this thread, I was making a 6" and 10" tiered cake for a bday cake this weekend and wasn't sure I'd like the big difference in size, so I opted for a 7"-10" for it. After seeing the above cakes though, it looks nice!

I do 6" and 10" ALL the time it's one of my most popular choices. People love the 4" gap but when you run the border it's like 3" anyway.

6" and 10" is pretty much the standard, not the exception. thumbs_up.gif

I made one a while back. I wasn't a fan of the look because the tiers were too tall...so I added the tree. In the end, I was okay with it--although I don't love it.
