I did a beer mug, and I had the very bottom be 1 inch styro, so the dowel could really be firmly settled. A transport hint...have the dowel extend about 3 inches above the cake so you have something to hold onto during transport. Tall narrow cakes tend to be very unstable while driving. Make the lid separately. when you arrive, cut the doewl off and place the lid. HTH! : Hey all-am making a beer can cake-should I put dowel rods through the entire cake into the cake board to make it more stable? I'm using either 6 or 7 layers of 7" cake....just wondering! Thanks:)
