All you need to do is use stiffer icing in the middle that you would use to frost the outside -- start with a stiff batch by adding LESS milk to your icing just to do the center. Then add the milk to frost the outside.Mrs. Cozy Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763518059931885041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-51485324496296673212010-06-29T21:46:26.126-05:002010-06-29T21:46:26.126-05:00Cake looks wonderful.

Here are my little tips. <br /><br />*The bottom layer should be upside down onto the cake plate. The hump will settle into the cake plate. If you think it is too wobbly, just cut the hump part off before flipping it upside down on the cake plate.<br /><br />* once you frost the bottom layer, add the top but, right side up his time.<br /><br />* if you think the frosting will make the top layer slide off after the above steps then before you frost it, about an inch for the edges, carefully scoop out about a 1/2 inch of the cake on the bottom layer. Then frost it. You will have less "slippage area". LOL<br /><br />* You can take a long knife and cut the hump off the top of the cake, or just leave it.<br /><br />I hope all that kinda made senseDiann @ The Thrify Groovehttp://thethriftygroove.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-75175269064281399852010-06-28T21:12:53.310-05:002010-06-28T21:12:53.310-05:00when you put the cakes together- take the top one ...when you put the cakes together- take the top one and put the lowest side of it on top of the high side of the bottom layer so the top of the cake will be even---balance the layers and they should be fine---always worked for me. the cake look great !!!Patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05047625125262212944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-85735587688482510272010-06-28T19:58:37.986-05:002010-06-28T19:58:37.986-05:00I would loved a piece of this anyway you cooked it...I would loved a piece of this anyway you cooked it.
