I wound up holding each cake with a spatulas as I poured the warm frosting on (a mixture of water, confectioner's sugar and Karo syrup). It helped somewhat with the unwieldiness of the cakes. But my kitchen hasn't been such a mess (like a frosting/crumb/utensil bomb went off) since I made a 2-story gingerbread house one year at Christmas.
