This was really helpful! I put some frosting on the plate to keep the cake from moving around, and I put the wax paper under the cake to keep the plate clean. Thanks for the tips!

Oh wow. This is super helpful. I need to pin this for my little sister. We've been dying to try out our own frosting but haven't had the motivation to do it yet.
