Pros and cons of Cake Stacker app for iPhone and iPad

Cake Stacker app good for

Great cake staking tool Cake decorators should have this app! Its faster and easier to do otherwise a tedious task of calculating servings using charts and stacking up dummy cakes to see if my cake is in proportion. Now by just tapping, not one but I can choose from so many cake options.

I use this app for every cake order. Works great for single or multitiered cakes, makes it easier to plan and suggest cake ideas to my customers. A part of my toolkit.

Some bad moments

The app freezes on you and is slow. If you create a cake and click on a different button to view setting or what not, the cake you just created would disappear and you have to recreate the whole thing again. The dowels placement is incorrect as it only list the number of dowels use for the bottom cake but not the center cake. A real caker know you need a center dowel to keep the cake in place. It doesnt matter if the height of the cake is 2" or 6" the serving size is still the same? How is that possible? Theres also no option to auto calculate dollars per serving. I wouldnt even keep it if I got it for free. What a disappointment, dont waste your money.

Do not waste your money. Could not even get my first attempt at a cake design to work. The screen locked up before I could even see my preview. Customer service suggested removing and reinstalling which I did twice. Still will not work. Overpriced for what they do offer in the app.

I was hoping that this app would allow you to somewhat decorate/design the cake, not just tell you the combinations for serving sizes

I really thought you can design or learn something with this app and really all it tells you is how many serving each tier serves for the price this app is a waste of money and memory space...I did one star cause I had to :(

I absolutely love this app, I can plug in my thoughts and with the touch of a button all of the logistics are there. Thank you

I was expecting a lot more especially for the price. I was hoping for full preview and being able to fully design the cake. I may not be using the app correctly, but I searched for decorations. I guess I cant my money back. I feel like a real sucker with this one. I use cake doodle for my designs. Its only .99 but you decorate the cake and show a fully designed model to clients.
