Also, I was watching a youtube video on making a topsy turvy cake and I saw that the lady iced the top first and then the sides, allowing the side icing to stick up over the top edge. Then she went around the top edge and smoothed the side icing that was sticking up, in toward the center of the top of the cake. It really made a nice clean edge. Not sure if that made sense, haha. The thing I have the most trouble with is keeping my spatula blade really straight. Hope that helps!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16200628084799841161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829537903604623873.post-46104938848020867332012-05-08T09:45:46.127-05:002012-05-08T09:45:46.127-05:00Your frosting jobs always looks so smooth and have...Your frosting jobs always looks so smooth and have those straight, well-defined edges. I still haven't gotten the hang of that quite yet. I guess I just need practice. Any tips or tricks you can give me?Chasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08843978553739213811noreply@blogger.com
