Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A
stacking un iced cakes
I have been asked to produce a 3 tier but with each tier split into 3 layers filled with cream and fruit.
I am more than a bit worried about the whole thing collapsing as I feel very insecure about it not being ganached and iced ??? any advise would be very gratefully recieved

Hello hemingway
There are several tutorials on how to stack and decorate a naked cake tier. If you search in youtube
‘how to stack and decorate naked cakes’ you see quite a good tutorial from Superfine bakery. The demonstrator has good technique but I would not advice using florist wire to secure fruits to the cake. There are other tutorials, just take a look at as many as you like and pick one which helps the most. I would recommend you use more dowels than the lady in superfine bakery did. I hope this helps and you find a suitable demonstration.
thank you madeitwithlove I managed and the bride loved the finished product
A happy result! I’m so happy for you. I think nude cakes look so lovely especially if decorated with fresh fruit.
