Let your cake cool completely rest in an airtight container for a day or even overnight before you ice it. Cut the mounded portion of the cake off with a leveler or a serrated knife to make the cake level and fit together easier.

If you have a cake mix, which only makes one layer. Then turn it into a torte. Slice the cake horizontally. By adding a ring of icing from a decorating bag through a tip, you will be able to create a dam on the outside of the bottom half of the cake. For a filling use the pudding from a child’s pudding cup, and spread it inside the ring. Top with the other half of the cake and ice as directed. You will need to choose a source of instruction. The culinary schools are colleges and will give you a degree making you more marketable if you choose to look for employment in this line of work.
