I am making an upsherin next sunday and would like to make a tzitzis cake. I need tips. how do I get the cake whole out of the 9x13 to be able to display it on a flat surface. I need a good recipe of a non chocolate cake that would behave when moved. I plan on using chocolate chips to make the black stripes. any idea of something edible that I can use as white strings.

Mazel tov!! May you have lots of nachas. I'm also doing an upshern in a couple of months, and already think of ideas....
Use any basic cake, rather dense than fluffy.
To get the cake out whole, use parchment paper, flip on a tray when cool, and peel the paper off.

Very thinly sliced fondant for the strings?

If it's totally flat then you can pipe the strings

You don't need to make edible strings if you don't serve them.
At the last upsherin I went to, the mom made a tzitzis cake by cutting a scoop out of one of the shorter sides of the cake, icing the rest white and putting actual string at the bottom of the cake. Oh, and I think she used black licorice for the stripes, but chocolate chips would probably go over better.

I used "sprinkles black piping gel" to make the black stripes. I did not make strings. I made mine out of peanut chew and covered it in white baking chocolate.

I used for the strings real strings easier that way.

Cut a half circle out of the top of the cake to be the kippah. Use sour straws if you want edible strings. Don't worry about the color, they don't stay white for long!
