ok so I am making a chocolate mousse box cake and I poured them into two cake pans. I know to stack them you have to cut the top to make it into a flat surface but I was just wondering if anyone cakes every just come out perfect with no cutting needed (Stupid question I know)
Re: Baking mommies (warning stupid question)
what you can do when the cake comes out of the oven is to either:
squish the top flat (gently!) with your hand/cake board, or
flip it over to cool.
Then you dont have to cut off any cake and worry about cutting it unevenly.

A wire cutter works just as good as a long bread knife.
When you dont cut, and flip the cake, it ends up looking like the leaning tower of piza and round on top.
