Kit Kat Mega Cake!!

I was asked to make a birthday cake for my good friend Megan son's 2nd birthday party! The beauty of Kit Kat cakes is that once you make the cake layers you can form a Kit Kat border around them for added structural support. Add some bright fun ribbon, and once chilled the cake can hold its own when the ribbon is removed.

To make a cake this large I would encourage a test run. I did a test one a week before and it greatly helped with figuring out layer size, coloring of cake, and how much frosting to incorporate. This cake was 3 boxes of Betty Crocker White Cake, almost 2 cups of egg whites and close to 6 cans of frosting ( 3 being white & 3 being milk chocolate). The ribbon I purchased at Michaels, and the fondant lettering I was able to pick up at Hy-Vee's bakery since when I tried frosting the name it wasn't thick enough to stand out.

This cake ended up being 9 layers with four (9 inch layers) on bottom and five (6 inch layers) on top. Each layer of cake was really cool to see once you cut into them, with each layer a different burst of vibrant color!

This is the link I loosely worked off of, and then put my spin on the rest of the cake. Hope you enjoy!:)
