Transporting a big theme cake or multi-tiered cake can be stressful and nerve-wracking. After creating your masterpiece, you might have a slight heart attack transporting your cake. This is the only time when you face all the potholes and obstacles on the road. I mean short of biting your fingernails while hoping that your cake didn’t get destroyed during transportation. If you are shaking your head in a vote, I know how you feel. I have been there.
Even after transporting so many cakes and experience, it would be a lie if I say I don’t get nervous now too. Why? Because you can’t avoid unexpected events, accidents, or sudden breaks on the road. This is why Satvik Eggless Bakery created below secrets to transport big theme cakes or multi-tiered cake safely so that you can breathe freely.
Let’s Start With Basics
- You got your lovely cake and now you are ready to take it to your destination. Here are some tips to safely transport your cake.
- Cake boxes should be held upright, steady, and level to avoid decorations from falling off or a cupcake from toppling over.
- Place your cake on the flat surface either on the floor near the passenger seat or in the trunk. You can ask your buddy to hold the cake in the lap.
- Make sure there is no object around the cake that has chances of falling over the cake box and hence damaging it.
- Put some support if needed to the sides especially for multi-tiers cake.
Supporting And Handling
If you want to give extra support to your cake, you can use a cake carrier too. Try not to hold more than one bag in one hand as this will make the cakes tilt and slide.
Careful Loading And Transporting
Always place your cake on a flat-level surface such as the trunk of the car. For more stability, use a non-skid mat to prevent the boxes from sliding around.
Always keep the temperature inside and outside the car in mind. If it’s a hot day outside, you can lower the temperature of your car. If it’s too cold outside, use a dab of paper towel to maintain the temperature. Now you have made lots of effort so drive carefully when transporting your big theme or multi-tiered cake.
Final Thoughts
Once you are at your destination, cut open the side of the box rather than lifting it and before serving make sure to check it once more.
