its easy.. Inside each layer of the cake are pillars that one can buy. these allow you to support a sheet of cardboard at the bottom of each new layer. As the cake gets disassembled to eat, the pillars and cardboard are removed.
Any cake decorating store has such supplies along with kitchen supply stores or you can order these items off of ebay online.btw. the pillars are plastic.. no need for metal..
