Ooh… I am addicted to balancing figurines! I use wooden skewers (satay sticks) for support. You have to poke at least 3 to 4 inches into the cake for stability. So far I only found 8 inch skewers and so I am limited to only two figurines on top of the cake. Anybody know where I can get longer ones?
