Does anyone know if there is a video demonstrating the upside-down icing technique? I tried to google it and I didnt come up with anything... maybe not using the right key words..

I know there are pictures with written instructions... but you know what they say: A picture is worth a thousand words but a video is worth a million! icon_smile.gif What can I say, I'm a visual learner...

Anyway, if anyone can point me in the right direction, even if it needs to be purchased icon_smile.gif

Thanks in advance for all the great help here!

Are you thinking about the Frozen Butter Cream Transfer Technique? If so--search that term on Youtube.com. I have watched it there several times. I also used that techinique with melted candy/chocolate wafers. See my Hockey Puck Cake with the School mascot.

Hi Pammie, Its not the FBCT technique (although I def would like to try that one of these daysicon_smile.gif )... it is the technique in the links above from Jason-Lisa and Cookiemama.

Thanks Jason-Lisa, I will study your link.. instructions look a little easier to follow. icon_smile.gif

I also have a Crafty class that shows a ton of different techniques, including another sharpening technique for cakes to heavy/big to flip over.  Here's the link to the class to get 50% off: www.craftsy.com/cakedesign.
