Notes
Tips For Icing A Layered Cake
When you are ready to frost the layered cake, you want to chill the cake. This makes it easier to add the frosting. Be sure to cut off the domes so that the cake layer lays flat against the other layers. Then, using an angled spatula, spread the frosting over the cake evenly. Then use the excess frosting to create a crumb coat on the sides of the cake.
