What I do for years now, and, most sighted people still do is if you turn your cake upside down, the bottom of your cake is flat from baking in the round pan, or even oblong pans.this makes the lopped side down on the cake plate so no one notices it. Then the flat side is up, then next layer you can put the flat side down on the bottom layer, after frosting the top of the bottom one. Or put the top layer right side up if it is not real lopped sided. Hope this makes since. Hard to explain it with out just showing someone. grin. Katie
I can't do it never yet accomplished anything.
I will try has accomplished wonders

Marilyn,

If the layers are lopsided, take the layers, so that they match up better.
If they are taller on one side tha the other, put the tallest on the bottom,
then put the other one with the short side on top of the tall side of the
bottom. that should help to even them out. Check this before you frost the
bottom layer to make doing this easier, then frost the bottom one and then
put the top one on.  I hope this is clearer than it seems.

Charlotte, I'm talking about once the cakes are cooled then how do you put
them together and ice them, without them being lopsided?

Marilyn,

I divide the batter in half for a two-layer cake.  Once I have the batter
in
the pans, I tap them on the counter and smoothe them gently to even them
out.

Hope this helps.

I would like to know how you made your layer cake.

I'd also like to know how visually impaired people make layer cakes,
without
them being lopsided, as mine are.

Hello there.

When I was a high school student I took a White cake and made it a
layered
cake putting chocolate icing on the three layers and the sides. I was
just
wondering if anyone has any tips on taking a cake and cutting it into
three
separate pieces or do you make three different White cakes and put them
on
top of each other? Have a great day everyone.
Blaine
