TIP TUESDAY: MAKING A CENTRAL DOWEL FOR YOUR CAKE Using a central dowel in a tiered or tall cake is important for several reasons: 1. STABILITY:The central dowel provides structural support, helping to keep the tiers securely stacked and preventing them from toppling over. This is particularly crucial for tall cakes where the weight can cause instability. 2. ALIGNMENT: A dowel helps to keep the layers aligned properly, ensuring that the cake looks neat and is evenly balanced when served. 3. WEIG

Stacking a tiered cake! Assemble each cake tier on a cake board that has a hole in the very center. CHILL tiers until solid before proceeding. I used a 3/8” dowel that was attached to the base for central support. The hole in the center of the cardboard cake circles was large enough for the wooden dowel to pass through. My bottom cake tier had a 9” cake tier placed on top, so I needed 9 supports in my bottom tier. I use milkshake straws and mark where I’ll be placing the straws to start. I aim t

Stacking cakes. Ever since I started using the dowel at the top as an anchor to hold onto, transferring tiers on top of each other has become sooo much easier and less stressful. Plus it’s needed on there anyway as the centre dowel, so really it plays two functions. #cakedecorating #cakeart #cakedesign #caketutorial #caketips #twotier | Rosie's Dessert Spot

🫣 If you’re wondering where the central dowel is, I didn’t forget it. This cake is traveling a whole 50 yards from my kitchen to my next door neighbor’s house so I didn’t need one! (I have lots of other videos about the central dowel if you’re curious- I ALWAYS add it after stacking, easy peasy!) Making tiered cakes doesn’t have to be hard. Check my Amazon shop for my favorite products shown here! ⭐️ If you found this video helpful please give it a like! ❤️ SAVE for your next tiered cake and FO

🍰My favorite tips and tricks for stacking cakes: -Use frozen or VERY cold cakes only. I don’t recommend stacking soft/warm cakes. -Use 4 big bubble straws or dowels for stability. Place them at all 4 corners. Don’t place one thru the center. -For added protection, stability, and easy serving, you can keep a cake board (that is smaller than the original cake) on each cake tier. Stack like you normally would right on top of the dowels you just placed. -Something that I do, and recommend is frost
