• Bake until a toothpick inserted into the cakes comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes for the 8-inch cakes and about 45 minutes for the bowl cake. Let the cakes cool about 20 minutes, then turn out onto racks to cool completely.
• Stack the three 8-inch cakes on a cardboard circle or cutting board, spreading frosting between each layer; put the top layer on upside down. Spread more frosting on the top layer.
• Trim the larger side of the bowl cake with a long serrated knife to make it level, then place cut-side down on top of the layer cake.
