I recently made my first FBCT using the guide that is on this site. There is the one step that says something like "using a spatula, smooth without blending the colors".
I am scared to do that! I'm afraid of wrecking it. Is there some other way to smooth it without using a spatula? lol. I'm probably thinking about it too much but I can't visualize how to smooth it without it wrecking it. Will I smear the colors on the back, and will that not matter or be visible on the front (when it is finished and turned over on to the cake)?
I smoothed it a little, but not much. It came out okay, but it could be better. Since I made it, I can see where it could be better. Thanks for any advice!
The photo is in my photos, I guess it is too big to attach to this message!
I have always been scared to do that step too!! I use my finger dipped in powdered sugar to get the back smooth/even, but I bet using a spatula would be much faster.
I hope someone will post some clarification about how to do it without smearing the whole thing ![]()
When you say that you wait for it to crust, do you mean before you put it in the freezer or after you put it on the cake?
