Topsy Turvy Pictorial (Found a Video!)

All not by me. They’re fantastic guides!

Flat stacked Cake Video.

(I’ve never done that big- hers are 4 tiers of 12″-10″-8″-6″. I’ve only used Bubble Tea straws cos that’s easily available, cheap and easy to cut to height. I’ve never driven a final dowel through all the tiers cos my cardboards between tiers are too strong to be hammered through.

My version:

1. Stick bubble tea straws into the bottom tier and use edible marker to mark the height of the cake.
2. Pull the straws out and snip at the marking. Insert into the exact holes and smear some royal icing as “glue”.
3. Stack the middle cake tier on (note: all your cake tiers are sitting on its own cardboard bases).
4. Repeat steps #1-#3 for the middle cake tier.
5. The topmost tier does not need to have bubble tea straws in it (only under its cardboard base). Unless you additionally put a heavy ornament as cake topper.

My version:

All bubble-tea straws but same method.
