Should I make them for free in return for advertising and inclusion in the “Goody Bags”?? Sure why not…...I have nothing better to do with my time, whilst ...

This (to me) is the hardest part about making a cake, getting that great clean smooth finish. With this tutorial by Whisk Kid, they show you how to frost a cake the best way every, with a scraper. Getting a bowl scraper, metal one, or any kind of scraper is the best way (to me) on how to create that smooth finish. This step my step word and picture tutorial will help you create that great finish.
