How to Stack a Pillered Wedding Cake
- 1). Place each tier of the cake onto a separator plate two inches longer in diameter than the tier.
- 2). Mark the icing in four places on the top of the first tier, making a perfect square.
- 3). Place four pillars on these marks.
- 4). Press a dowel in through the center of each pillar until each touches the separator plate. Trim the excess dowel.
- 5). Place the next tier on the four pillars. Continue adding pillars, dowels and layers until the cake is fully assembled.
