Edna Terrific video. I have not seen that technique before. I am going to try that this weekend. By the way, What icing do you use???
Thanks so much for this wonderful video and for sharing your knowledge!!!

Well.. I use different ones ...but I use the wilton one for my classes and it works fine. I do use high ratio shortening instead of crisco. As long as it's a crusting recipe in a medium consistency, it should work. You dont want the paper sticking to the icing!
Edna
Awesoooooommme!!!! I love this. This is one of my major obstacles. Thank you thank you thank you.
Just remember, this is something to be practice!..It might not come perfect the first time..
Edna

Edna Dear You are WONDERFUL !!!! Another great video!! THANK YOU ---THANK YOU ! Im so excited,keep them comming !You smoothed that cake in record time and it was perfrct !!
Oh god..You know how difficult is to ice a cake an try to explain what I am doing!!
I can ice a cake in 15 minutes fiddlesticks..
I'm curious on the thickness of your crumbcoat. When I first watched your video I actually though the cake was frosted until you stated it was a crumb coat. I thought a crumb coat was thin layer of frosting over the cake but your crumbcoat looks more than that. So how thick is your crumbcoat? And what do you mean by don't play with the crumbcoat.
Thanks for your help!

yeah you should do a thinner crumbcoat. I didnt do the crumbcoat on the cake..When that happens I make sure my second coat is lighter!
Edna
Thank You Thank You

Thanks, Edna. I am planning on trying the calla lilies this week as well. Your cakes are so beautiful.
Edna.. Ice a cake in 15min ? Are you kidding me?? It takes me forever and It still looks like crap! I do the paper towel thing but somehow I always seemed to push icing from the top down on the side ! Or who knows what I do ??? I will be trying this for sure !

I do understand your question..If you see the side..you can see the lines of the cake..I thought the same thing too..But I am use to deal with this situation since I am not the person who does the torte and filling of the cakes..
Edna
Thank you so much!
I have trouble getting the nice sharp top edge and this is gonna help me get to that!
I think this week my purchase is a fondant smoother!
Nancy
