Trouble Turning Out Sheet Cake Layers
Decorating By basketpam Updated 27 Jun 2014 , 2:35pm by random user
I need to make a sheet cake for my neice's housewarming party. I dread one factor any time I have a larger cake like this and need to do layers, turning out the second layer onto the bottom layer. I have yet to figure out how to do this without some sort of disaster happening to me. I almost always am working on my own so I don't have an extra pair of hands. HOW do you get the second layer of a sheet cake out of the pan and onto the bottom layer and filling without it breaking into pieces? I KNOW there has to be a way to do this since people do it all the time but I haven't learned the secret yet. HELP!
I freeze the layers and then defrost one I want on bottom. After I have iced or filled the bottom layer I put the frozen layer on top of it and leave it to defrost. It doesn't take long for it to and then I trim edges to be the same if needed, then you can ice and decorate as usual. This saves a lot of drinking, and stress on your end!
I have done them this way for years and have had no problems. Glad we could help you.
I use a cake lifter and position it over the cake and gently slide it off
