How to frost a smooth cake with buttercream frosting

- Today’s tutorial is all about how to frost a smooth cake. Getting that nice, smooth finish when icing a cake can take some practice, but I have been asked so many times about how I get my icing so smooth, I’ve finally put together some instructions that I hope will be helpful. Just remember you have to be patient. My first cake did not look like my current cakes. It took practice - and the right tools.
See my in depth tutorial for how to get smooth sides and crisp edges with buttercream frosting - no fondant! For the full tutorial and links to my favorite tools - www.lifeloveandsugar.com/2015...

First thing I thought...
THAT FROSTING IS SUCH A PRETTY COLOUR
After the crumb coat freeze the cake for 10-15 minutes so the crumb coat will stay and not pull off from the cake :D
Thanks for the tip i wasn't sure if i needed to freeze the cake long or not to much

Stxr Huntress thank you because I literally don’t know what I’m doing and I took so much icing off cause I didn’t freeze it I just refrigerated it 🥴
Hi I’m a Team lead at Walmart for the bakery and I recently got thrown in on your cake orders didn’t know nothing came across your video an Did as you said in this video And my cakes came out so amazing and I just wanted to say thank you because if it wasn’t for you my cakes would still be lopsided and uneven now my corners are so nice and I just wanted to say thank you so much this video helped me out !!!!
Are you still decorating cakes at Walmart
I feel like you should start right from the start, like from cutting and levelling the cake to the final coat.

You are the first person I've ever seen that uses Viva paper towels to smooth their cakes too! I've done it for 35 years!! It's AMAZING!!! So awesome to see it on here!
I use them also!!! I'm a cake decorator at Walmart and use them for mine!
I was taught the same way!
Why are there so many bad reviews on Viva towels in the last 2 years since they changed them? Is there something else I can use in Canada that works just as well?
I'm amazed that the frosting doesn't stick to the paper towel!
Do you place the cake in the fridge to harden frosting before using the paper towel??!! Or can you use the paper towel on the fresh wet frosting??
I agreed. I've been watching a lot of buttercream frosting videos and this is perfect! What a concise tutorial! Kudos!
I keep coming back to this and am finally getting my Amazon shopping cart ready to pull the trig for making great looking cakes. Thanks so much for posting
HomeValue Glass I just got my stuff! Good luck!
Wow, having exactly the right tools for the job makes all the difference! That is information that is often lacking, too. You have really come up with some wonderful techniques! Love your t-shirt!
I've been a professional pastry worker for years now and I have to say this lady is reteaching me the easier, better way to ice a cake. I've been using nothing but bow knives and off set spatulas for this job for many years. I think it is time for me to revisit the ateco icing smoother; take it out of retirement! Thank you!

I think that imperfections are what make a homemade cake and I like the cake to mainly be smooth but I don’t stress over a perfect perfect smooth cake. As long as it’s homemade and tastes amazeballs.
It looks so good. Thank you for your technique!
I never made any cake but I watched the whole video. It's really clear for every step!
Hi, thank you so much for this, I’m acctually only 10 years old and I LOVE to bake cakes and all sorts of things. I am currently doing this for my cousins birthday that’s comming up but I’m using the colour blue instead.

@@Xara_K1 Who are you talking about?
Thanks for the tutorial. Could you share your buttercream recipe? It looks so smooth.
That's the best video on how to get a smooth cake. I liked the way you added that extra ring of frosting at the top to get the sharp top edge. Thanks
You are my life saver!! I have been wanting to know how to smooth a cake perfectly and I found your channel and watched the video and I thank you so much!! You are SO talented!
This cake is perfection! I can't believe it is frosting and not fondant because it is so smooth! Just subscribed! :)
Well thank you so much for this .I have always had trouble making sure my cake was completely smooth. I usually would just give it one of those swirl designs because I can never smooth it out properly
I bake old-fashion cakes and received an order for a fancy cake, which I have never done. Thank you for this tutorial! I'm crossing my fingers for a great outcome. ~Maggie Bean

Thank you sooo much for this tutorial. After watching several tutorials, for me this one is the best.
Awesome tutorial! I struggle with this getting my cakes smooth, I just give up and pipe rosettes🤦🏽♀️
Thankyou so much for sharing with the imp tip of putting an extra layer on top
This is the best video ever
After watching this I've made several smooth butter iced cakes for my clients and they r very happy
from all the tutorial on cakes i feel yours the best . Thanks for the generosity to share this tips with us.
This is probably my all time favorite cake decorating video. Thank you!!
I love this video! I’m wanting to get into decorating cakes and cookies and this video is so easy to follow!
That's soo amazing it's an excellent performance 🙌❤️
The technique of using the Wilton 789 nozzle tip has greatly helped me in achieving a smooth finish on the sides, and the techniques demonstrated in this video are so helpful. Thank you for this informative video! It was a lifesaver for me.
Awesome! I'm so glad to hear it's been helpful!
This is the best way I've ever seen to smooth the frosting on a cake. Thank you so much! That cake looks almost too beautiful to eat...almost 😊. ❤🍰, love Jesus and naps too.
Instant sub here in that shirt! Also, I have been frosting cakes for years and teaching art and I LOVE both your method of frosting and teaching! Pure excellence!
Her shirt caught me too :)
This is so beautiful! I'm pretty decent with piping and make a lot of cupcakes, but I don't know why I waited so long to learn how to make a smooth cake. My inspiration is my daughter's longing for a unicorn cake for her 4th birthday. I hope it comes out even half as lovely as yours!
Amising
This is one of the best tutorials I’ve watched!
Watching you frost this cake is sooo satisfying...
You had me as soon as I seen your I love Jesus shirt.You voice is gracefully during the video and loved the great tip.
Its helpful to explain about the crumb coat. When I started frosted cakes, nobody explained the purpose or how exactly to do a crumb coat. You also look like Jennifer Garner.
This is the bestttttt video that actually works. I love your shirt. GOD BLESS YOU SISTER
Thank You so Much! Totally Amazing. I've been building cakes on and off for fifty years and never seen anything so wonderfully easy and successfully done in such a timely manner. You have given me hope in making an easy cake tomorrow for my Granddaughter's online baby shower. :D we are social distancing.. But I'm the babysitter of big sister, the 2 1/2 year old. We Love Jesus and Naps too! God Bless and Keep you and yours safe.
OMG I don't believe it😱 You are amazing Every thing you do is so beautiful amazing and cool I think you are born to bake and make these things

I haven’t watched yet, just thought I would say, I bought one of her cake cook books. I own more than a half dozen of others,hers is the best ever very good investment for anyone that likes to bake and decorate the best cakes in town. Thank you.
Reba Fleming, where did you get her cake book? I live in Canada. I am in my 70's, I am still looking to better my self , as I do many cakes for all occasions. Thank you. Blessings
Beautiful.... I have a friend that learned from some courses on Wilton so now she has her home cake business.... I've always wanted to try this...
I am making a baby shower cake for my 1st grandchild thank u for your help. And adorable babies so cute at the beginning of the video !
Loved your t-shirt! Thanks for the tutorial.
This was a hard job for me but when I got it I was good! Thanks
Love the way you smooth your cake very elegant.

What a great tutorial, especially the corners, thank you for sharing.
This is so beautiful! I will definitely try this technique for my birthday!
I could watch this over and over for a million years! She so nailed it! I love the color and the texture of her buttercream frosting. Not a lot of bakeries make cakes and frosting like this anymore! She so nailed it!
Thank you. I've learned so much.
Your cake is perfect. Thank you for taking the Gauntlet and making your own Cake Videos.
Great tips, thank you for sharing. I'm a Gourmet Cake Artist in my hometown and love to post about my cakes as well. Thanks again, Happy Baking!
Thanks for sharing this...so helpful for someone like who is just beginning to learn about cakes..love your cake, it was perfectly made and your shirt, it's so cute ...💜
Step one: buy a cake stand.
Step two: if you don’t have a cake stand. Cry
You can put it on a plate or cookie tray and rotate that. That’s what I did before I bought one. You can also elevate your cake using cans.
@@sirstan4897 lol that is the best option I made my first fondant and buttercream cake a while ago for my cousin sisters b'day and it was without any tools I mean my family loved it but it was really tricky to make so I support your decision 😂😂
@Baylie ϟymms i wasn’t able to find any but i got one a few days ago and the first cake i made fell apart cause i had too much batter 😭
🤣
Wonderful tutorial! Thanks so much for sharing!
Hello! First time watching… I love it! Definitely going to be binge watching your videos. Love your sweet nature and teaching style. I’ll have to admit this , right up front: I’ve not actually decorated a cake yet. But, I’m planning on it soon. Need to collect some supplies. Your example here, will be the first that I try. It’s just beautiful ❤️ The shade of the frosting is perfect. Thank you so much 🌺
( Really love your t-shirt). God bless
Thank you for a very good tutorial, how to make sharp and smooth edges 🌸🎂
Love from Denmark 🇩🇰
Thank you for this! I am just starting out, and I love your tutorials! I did my first ombre today :)
Love the T - shirt!!! Beautiful cake!!
Yes agree.. I need that shirt! 😊
Looks like a perfect cake for a little girl's birthday. Enjoyed the lesson.
Wow that was the best tutorial on smoothing and sharp corners I’ve seen! I almost didn’t watch this bc I’ve seen so many! You just changed my life!
I IMMEDIATELY subscribed when I saw your t-shirt! ✝️🙏🏽❤️
Thank you!! This is so awesome, and you’re cake is flawlesssssss :)
Thank you! this helped so much. my cakes look so professional now wonderful tips and a great tutorial😊🤗
God has really given you a talent for decorating cakes, the cake looks so beautiful, it looks better than some cakes I have seen in the stores.👍👍👍👍
Fantastic. Thank you so much for this tutorial. Really helpful.
Just a question : did you chill the cake before using the paper towel on it ? I live in a very hot place and I am worried the buttercream will come off
My question too
Maybe around 2 hours? I hour? Just check each hour and see if it’s not sticky but firm.
Great tutorial! Also, my fav tshirt says 'Raised on sweet tea and Jesus'. 💗
Ur videos have changed my life!
Thank you so much for making this video. I’m starting to bake cakes and this video showing me some great techniques. Thank you :)
Can you use parchment paper to smooth out the top of the cake in place of Viva paper?
YOU ARE TRULY AMAZING! I loved this so much and I love that you don't fill up your videos with too much talk! Thank you!
Whao this is beautiful thank you so so much for this tutorial I actually have an order for cake this weekend which I am so nervous to do but with this tutorial I guess my decorating cake will be awesome...so I pray with this your tutorial
First time am learning new trick. Using soft paper towel. ..I can try this to get smoother frosting.
The paper towel came out clean..I'm shocked 😂
I've never used actual butter for butter cream frosting. I usually use margarine because I'm just practicing and butter is quite expensive here. Anyway nice video. When I'm ready to practice with butter I'll play your video again
Wow my first encounter with a cake decorator loving Jesus. I love Him too.
me too
Me too!!💖💖💖
Me too
Glory to God
Me too ❤️
An actual, helpful, detailed video ...about damn time !
I love this and a pointer i found out myself is if you wanna do the tower thing Pn the side freeze the cake for 10,mins so that the nice corner doesnt move
Omg thank you for doing this!! I just started posting photos of old cakes I made and noticed I had huge air pockets from my first homemade buttercream cake and it made me start thinking “how do I get smooth edges?!” So just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for your recipe, I love your T-shirt
Such a lovely and peaceful video. Love the t-shirt!
I love your t-shirt sweetie and that cake looks BOSS. I love the frosting and I love the color pink too. Very pretty!!☺☺☺
