Step 2: Trimming the Cakes




Step 2 was totally easy. I trimmed the rounded parts off each layer, and cut the "bowl" layer in half. I used my extra-large-really-sharp serrated knife, and it worked just fine. I didn't even freeze it first.




Step 2 also involved cutting the 2-inch holes in the middle of each layer. The ultra-prepared demonstration lady on the video used a cute "decorative cutter" (although it looked suspiciously similar to a biscuit cutter to me). I couldn't find anything that small, so I just cut the holes with a knife. Nobody is really going to see them anyway!
Stay tuned for Step 3: The Crumb Coat
