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 !!!!

I feel like you should start right from the start, like from cutting and levelling the cake to the final coat.

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!

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

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!

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

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.
