perfect! just as the size that i am doing. you can visit my blog for not so expensive materials that you can use for that particular cake. but i will suggest to you to use something hard for the base board, say a half-inch thick plywood. ok?

here is the link of my food blog: http://guerrerosfoodstore.blogspot.com/search/label/shared%20ideas

if you still have some questions... just message me ok? im glad to help.
