Hi. How is this cake iced? Thanks in advance.

I don't know how but its very cool! I am interested too.

Just a little heads up to all. My Norton advised a Trojan when I tried to click on the thumbnail !!

The pic is clean. Maybe your norton didn't like the pictures host (?) which was vhostfree.com

bump...inquiring minds want to know

Oh that is gorgeous! Wish I had the answer because then I could do it!

It reminds me of the old spatula 'petals' the ladies used to do back in the 1950s. Do you think it could be made by 'rocking' a spatula in columns?

I love it too.....what about using the back of a teaspoon and alternating from one side to the other?

great looking I also want to know

Looks to me like an impression mat, but I would like to know for sure.

I wish I could find who did this cake so I could ask. I think the cake is so cool.

large petal tip piped in a swag fashion?

I think its done with the back of a spoon, almost zig-zagging from top to bottom. I'll try this technique this weekend and let you know!

Looks like a spoon or spatula "swag" to me.

I done something similar with the triangle on the link

Ok. I tried it with the back of the spoon. It came out good, but I am sure with some more practice it could be better. Sorry the pictures are in reverse order. Didn't realize that was the order they were being posted:

I think you have it! GREAT LOOKING CAKE! Looks so gooooood!

Yes! I think you've got it! Is that regular buttercream?

The original looks like it may be a meringue based icing that will give a more glossy and 'rounded' Austrian curtain style ruffle.

I used bettercreme for the cake. I thought a whipped icing would be easier to swirl- and it is. I think I might have made the bettercreme a little to stiff. But I think it still came out ok. I figure smbc would probably work good too with a warm spoon.

It really looks nice. I like to see something other than a smooth side for a change.

I would save myself all that work and get a 127 tip and pipe it on.

actually, the whole cake only took about 10 minutes! The sides I mean.

I think it looks great using a spoon!
