What is the best way to torte a 12-inch squared tier? I am afraid it will fall apart when I try and separate it. I've seen on cake shows where they slice it down the middle, fill each half, and then put back together. Just wondering if that's the norm for this size cake or if anyone has a better way.
I just did one this past June. I lost the first one and had to bake another because of torting. I ended up using a cardboard cake square to slide between them and lift it off. I left it on there untill I filled the layer and then just slid or wiggled the layer onto the other.
i freeze all of my cake so I level and tort before I freeze. Then before it is thawed 100% I handle each layer so it is still cold and firm.
Another option is to slide a cake board or cookie sheet (one w/o a lip on one side) under the layer and lift up to move it.
I cut it and then slide cardboard between it for bigger tiers.
