I'm soon going to attempt to make my first stacked cake, 3 tiers
But I cant seem to find the best type of cake to use. I don't want to use a boxed mix. So could I use a sponge cake, like victoria sponge? Or would it need to be something like pound cake. I'm also in the UK if that makes a difference. Hope someone could help clear it up for me, thanks. ![]()
Really, nothing is too soft for stacking since the cake shouldn't be bearing any weight from the tiers above. All the weight should be on the support system.
Like a dulce de leche that is so soupy milky would not work--but it's the engineering inside the cake that holds it up--not just the cake itself. You have to use dowel or some kind of support system.
