I know a lot of you on here have made the giant cupcake with candy melts to form the wrapper on the base of the cupcake. How do you serve the cake when you do that? Also, should it be served as one big piece or do you usually take the top part off and cut that separately? I'm thinking about making it the top tier of my Christmas cake, but I want to figure this out first. TIA

I know some cut right down through the whole thing. But I just made one recently with the chocolate bottom for my niece's bday. I torted the top piece so I could separate the top from the bottom and still have filling. However, my BIL cut through the entire cake top to bottom. It was too tall, but you could do it either way.

I did one once for my 1 years old bday and I cut right through the center. I cut them super thin.

Thank you both! Does the chocolate cut through or does it crack?

Maybe if u cut it with a hot knife it will cut easily. That's what I would do
