Tried making a 12-layer rainbow cake for a kid's party in Portland and it turned into a leaning tower

I used a full box of gel food coloring and baked each layer separately, but they all came out different heights and the whole thing started to tilt after the third tier. I had to prop it up with a bunch of wooden skewers hidden in the frosting. Has anyone else had a cake just decide to go rogue on them?

Oh man, that cake sounds like it had a mind of its own! My last layer cake looked more like a modern art sculpture.

Well, I actually think those leaning cakes have a lot of character, @lucas63.
