: I would get some quarter inch styrofoam, cut it to size and cover with either fondant, gum paste, or even buttercream. Run a strip of fondant or gum paste on the bottom edge of the lid where it rests on the the base cake, put half of the fondant strip on the lid and half on the base cake, making sort of a hinge. You can also add another strip on the out side of the lid the same way, this will hold the lid on the base cake.  You might want to place a styrofoam wedge to hold the lid at the angle you need it. Glue the wedge to both cake and lid with frosting, royal icing. I hope that is clear to you and that it will help you.  Good luck

: I am looking for suggestions on how to make the lid of a jack in the box cake stand up. I appreciate any experience or ideas you may have! Thanks!
