Great video! Can you share what tool you use to cut your mdf boards please? Also, im counting 4 mdf boards… or am I mistaken? The big sq one, the round for the bottom, round for the top and a smaller round to hold the top tier ? Love your channel!

[@Kay-jk2gi]

Beautiful! Just wondering... why do you need to add tylose to the fondant for the bear characters? And do you need to add to the fondsnt that covers the cake?

[@SugarHighScore]

Hi Kay. Tylose is added to strengthen and help dry out the fondant, so I would use it on figures and pieces I want to harden. I don't typically use it on fondant for covering the cake.

Where you got that board and the screws that supports the whole cake? I’m having hard time making tier cakes and that gravity effect. I’m new to baking so maybe you can help me with it. I really like how you did it so easily ☺️

[@SugarHighScore]

Thanks! I got everything from a hardware store like Home Depot or Lowes. You can also buy masonite round boards on Amazon.

[@catlady862]

Hello Steffy, first of thank you só much for your complete tutorial, complete with the making of the stand. I am totally in love with this cake and will give it a try as a gender reveal cake for my first grandchild. 😍🍰
I only see one slight problem ahead and that's how to get the cakes at my son and daughter in laws house in one piece, and not smeared all over my car. Lol!
How do I safely transport it? The topper can come off but will the cakes stay in place? I hope you can give me a good tip? I adore your work you're a true artist. Thank you for mentioning the measures. Since i'm Dutch and not to clever with measurements I have to figure out how much an inch is since here we mostly work with cm's. 🤔☺️
I keep watching your video. Such sweet cake! ❤️

[@SugarHighScore]

Thank you so much! This cake was very sturdy. I always travel with them on the floorboard of my car and of course drive really slow. I have another video that’s similar to this one but using a different stand. It’s coming soon!

[@catlady862]

@@SugarHighScore thanks so much for your response. I will put it in a large cardboard box on the floor of my car and hold it while someone carefully drives me. Don't have to go far so..
But its more work than it seems and i made some little adjustments due to the purpose my cakes are baked for. Extra is a train caketopper with little caboose behind it. Very cute.
Nice thing is you can make toppers weeks beforehand. Anyways, keep up the great work, i admire your skills. Wish i could send you a photo of mine when its done coming friday, but i only use youtube. Best wishes from the Netherlands. ~Gabriëlle

Hi I have a similar cake but it’s a 4 tier , how and it’s more tipsy turvy how can I get the boards at different angles

[@SugarHighScore]

I saw one the other day that used pvc pipe that was cut at different angles. I’d like to figure it out with a threaded rod though.🤔 If I figure it out, I will post.

Such a beautiful cake and you make it do-able with your tutorial. In Australia we don't have half and half. Can I use cream instead, if so, what time of cream. Thank you 💖

[@SugarHighScore]

Thanks so much! 💖To make one cup of half and half you combine 3/4 cup whole milk and 1/4 cup heavy cream.

From what I've learned from other bakers, yes. You could always cover it in candy melts if you prefer that method instead.
