Viva papertowel method works the best. Just take the papertowel and lay it over your crusted iced cake. Gently smooth your hand over the paper towel (you can also use a fondant smoother). All your imperfections should disappear.

I've also used parchment paper in the same manner but Viva papertowels are much cheaper than the parchment paper.

These are the 2 that work the best for me. HTH
