I have seen a lot of cakes using the diamond impression effect on the sides, some are flat some have that puffy effect. How do you achieve that? I can get the flat effect, but can't seem to get it to be puffy, what is the secret? TIA

If this is a topic that has been covered, please excuse me, I did a search but didn't come up with anything but pictures of cakes with that effect, wish the search feature worked better.

Just wanted to give a big THANK YOU! to Laventure, I found a cake in the galleries with this effect that she did, I pm'd her and she answered right back giving me complete instructions on how she achieved this look. Now, the question is, can I do it. Gonna practice until I get it right. Again Thank you, laventure! I appreciate your help.
