Cake Decorating Community - Cakes We Bake

It's official - I'm a convert! 

 

I used the SPS system for the first time today.  We made a 4 tier wedding cake and it was wonderful!  I always stress over crooked cakes when using dowels or straws but this one is fool proof. 

 

Here's info on using the system - http://media.cakecentral.com/files/sps_104.pdf

 

You can purchase it from several vendors but here's where I found it the cheapest on the East Coast.  http://www.fondantsource.com/bacrsiplse.html

 

Once you've read the directions if you still have questions just let me know.  I'm not an expert on it yet but I've done a tremendous amount of reading on this subject.

 

And, here's our cake -

Your cake is beautiful!  I use the SPS all the time and I love it!!!  I have a very long - bumpy - uphill driveway and don't ever have a problem with this method!!

That's really cool, Deah!  I'd never heard of that system before!  I can see where it would be great for anything over 2 tiers that you're going to be transporting.  I love that it's made for 1-time use so the person getting the cake can then just throw them away, you don't have to worry about getting your system back (unlike a few of the other systems I've seen).  Would be fun to get a set just to try them out! Thanks for sharing!

 

And your cake is gorgeous- did you freehand all that piping??

Deah,

Amanda (from ITO) uses that system and loves it too!  I have heard good things about it.  Glad you had good success with it!  I do love my cake stackers system but there are the parts that have to be returned. 

Your cake is so pretty!  Lots of piping! 

Yes, all hand piped.  I have a cake partner so we were able to switch off when our hands got tired.

You are lucky to have a partner... that much piping will cause a few cramps for sure without a break!
