Please help...trying to do my first wedding cake in 6 weeks, and scared to death! Never made a cake this large, with 16" 12" 8" rounds. Do cake shops normally carry a round 16"? She wants it on a pedestal. Do I just make the cake on a board and then set it on the pedestal once I arrive? Do I glue it down using icing? The top tier is also going to be on a pedestal cake stand. Do I just set a separator plate using dowel supports and then glue the pedestal w/icing? Won't that ruin the second tier once they remove it to cut? Thanks in advance-any suggestions are appreciated!
Ok, anybody out there with a lil help for a new kid? My sisters wedding is coming up quick!! I found my cake shop does have the boards in the size I need, but still wondering about the whole pedestal situation. I was thinking of making a practice cake but yikes thats alot of cake and all out of pocket... I have made plenty of stacked cakes, just this is larger than I ever made and I never used a pedestal. Thanks!!
How hot is it going to be? If its pretty warm then an icing with shortening is the best. I am not positive about the pedestal. Keep researching though you will figure it out or hopefully someone on here will help you. Good luck!!!
