Hi-- I've seen cakes that have cookie crumbs pressed into the sides of the cake (just above the bottom border) in a scalloped pattern. Do any of you do this? Do you have to lay down a stencil or is there a way to do it freehand?

I think you press the crumbs (or whatever it is) it into the side of the cake with your hands and then do a sweep over of smoothing to make it smooth. But, we'll see what the experts think! ~Josie icon_smile.gif

I'm not an expert, but it looks like you could cut the scallop out of a piece of paper, and put the crumbs on that way. I'm not sure if you could do it without a pattern.
