A tiered cake is multiple, differently sized cakes, stacked atop one another to create height and drama that lends itself to becoming a focal point of the party.
What is the difference between a layered cake and a tiered cake?
Layers refer to the inside of a cake, which can be anywhere between two and 3 layers of cake, sandwiched together by buttercream before being decorated. Tiers refer to the number of cakes of increasing size that are stacked on top of each other.
