Do I need to strengthen the tiered cake with a central core

 
rnv76
Girls, tell me who (from personal experience) if the cake will be 4-tiered, does it have to be reinforced with a central rod? Or will the tubes with substrates be enough? It's just that there were always 3-tier orders in my orders, and I was confused, I don't know what to do.

rnv76, Nataliya, I even strengthen by two tiers
thrill
rnv76, Natasha, I do not reinforce three-tiered mastic with a central rod. But I'm going to do it every time. And I think that a cake in four tiers must be strengthened with a central core. This time they drove and scolded myself for not strengthening the mastic three-tier.
I walked along our roads. I was almost in an embrace with him (((I put a rod in three tiers in a cream-covered cake. But it would be necessary, like Vera, to use a rod in two tiers.

rnv76, Natasha, my cakes are all cream. I reinforce 2- and 3-tiered with a central rod, and I feel so calm, everything is ok. I didn't make four-tiered cakes, but I don't want to (scary)
thrill
Albinka (Alya), do you string the cakes on the rod or put it on top through the substrates? I tried to just pierce the backing with a sharpened sushi stick. Did not work out. How do they manage to do this on the video ??? The rod is driven into the cake with a hammer.

There cakes will stand any hammer)) these are not our delicate and soaked ones. I first cut out a circle in the center in the substrates, it does not pierce with a skewer.

Gulya, and then put the rod on top? And the circle is about what diameter? We must then get there))

It's scary to imagine what will happen to the cake. The edges of the backing will rise with the cake in the process.

Yes, I then insert the rod from above. The circle is probably about a centimeter in diameter ...

Thank you so much)

Now the question is: Where to get such a rod? I don’t know, I’m so worried))) with 3 tiers it’s easier as it was for me, it didn’t strengthen and all the rules were
thrill
Natasha, don't worry, don't wind yourself up. All the same. Only one more tier. The other day I made a three-tiered mastic and presented it in four tiers. Just another small cake on top. My husband made 2 glazing beads. But it turned out to be frail. Although he offered me to make it thicker. For yours, of course, you need something solid.

I do this, but this is if there is decor on top

Withstands everything, the rod is sharpened, how much of that cardboard

and what is frail ?, I also cut it out of the glazing bead. It does so smoothly, rounds off




I assembled a four-tier on the spot, did not risk with our holes on the roads

I calculate the length of the rod to half the height of the third tier. Then you can do without decor. This is if the typesetting way.

Vera, did you do that? Punched with a staple? What? With a hammer?

The cake dangled from side to side. It was creamy.

thrill, Love, Yes, I put the glazing bead on the upper tier, pierce it. as soon as the glazing bead rested against the substrate, I lightly knock on it with a kitchen hammer, then I advance it to the next substrate, hit it again and so on until it rests on the main substrate.
And it's dumb for me to cut a hole, I immediately align the cake on the substrate, suddenly the hole will fall off the center. Once there was a cake without decor, it seemed to me that the upper tier was not in the center. You can't cut a big one, it will suddenly move out. And so tight

Once I did and vowed, especially in the heat. The husband held and said that he was alive. Weighed 12 kg, and also strawberries on top. And she probably also swayed
thrill
In short, you have to try.

Wow, 12 kg. My 8.5 kg. And it was sooo dumb))
Albinka (Alya)
I insert a skewer into the lowest tier, and put the subsequent tiers on it, I calculate the length of the skewer immediately. In the substrates, I cut holes 2-3 cm in diameter approximately, so that for sure) All cakes are cream
thrill
Albinka (Alya), Thank you!
