I had baked it last year on my hubby's birthday and dropped back again to visit the website for another cake for another one of hubby's birthday :-) I want to try this cake, but not sure how big a pan is required. I have a pretty shallow (about 1-1.5 inch tall) 8 inch cake pan. I used that for baking the dates cake from your site and it comes out perfect in that. Do you think that size should be ok for this layered cake? Somebody mentioned in the comments that I need a taller pan. Please comment and help. Also how do you horizontally cut the cake in pieces. Do you use a good old knife or some special tool to do the cutting fine? Thanks so much and keep posting these wonderful recipes. -Purvi Hello Shilpa,
