I don't normally do wedding cakes, but when someone at my church approached me about doing their son's wedding cake ALL Rice Krispies, I was intrigued. They showed me a few examples on Pinterest, but I was worried that I wouldn't get the depth for the height of the cake to look right. I knew I needed a deep dish cake pan to make the tiers in so I wouldn't have that layered look inside each tier, it had to be a block of Rice Krispy or it wouldn't look right.
I found some Fat Daddy cake pans, but they would have been to expensive, and I was worried that I may not get them out all the way. So I asked Theo to make me some deep shadow boxes that I could use as a frame for each tier. In no time at all, he cranked out these bad boys:

10X10, 8X8, and a 6X6 |

I covered the sides with tinfoil and greased them up real good, then placed them on greased up plastic wrap so they wouldn't stick to the table. |

Here are the Krispy tiers all snug in their packed frames. It took 19 batches of Rice Krispy treats to fill these suckers!!! |

The naked cake all stacked and pretty. Good thing Theo had the foresight to build the frames with screws, even with all the shortening the bigger tiers gave me a tough time. Theo just unscrewed the screws and pulled the sides off, it was magical! |
And here is the cake in all it's glory! They had the
decoration already figured out for the cake so I just had to stack it
and she added the flag bunting and a really cool sparkly ribbon on the
bottom of each tier. I'd have to say, this is my favorite version of a
Rice Krispy wedding cake, of course I am a little biased...:)

19 batches of Rice Krispies. Oh my! How did they cut and serve it? I really like that but I would added icing or something to jazz it up.
They had a serrated knife, it cut pretty easy for them, they just took off a corner. I had to saw through it for the serving sizes and the thicker parts were a beast! It was totally worth it though. :)
