Decorating By aprilcake Updated 10 Jun 2008 , 12:21am by rezzygirl
When icing the full sheet cake, I always have trouble smoothing the middle of the cake without there being spatula lines. Its hard to smooth it without laying the spatula down in the cake icing. I had a bench scraper and lost it and now I cant figure out nothing to make it smooth...uurrgghh!!!
HELP!
Thanks!

Do you let it crust and then try smoothing it out with a paper towel? I usually just "rough" icing mine and then let it sit and then lay a paper towel over it and run my hand back and forth to smooth. Good luck.
LOL, ok so I just looked at your cakes!! They are great!! You sure don't need advice from ME!!! lol
Viva is the best thing to use to get a smooth finish!
