2. Thanks. But How Would You Keep All Those....

....cake circles intact when you frost the layers? Another problem was when I removed the divider from the first pan, to use in the 2nd and 3rd, the cake batter dripped and ran on the batter already in the 1st pan, thus mixing chocolate and yellow where I didn't want it.

I like the tip about putting the cakes in the freezer to firm up. One suggestion, on the box of my checkerboard set, was to put the batter in the fridge for one hour to make it less runny. Wish I'd tried that!
