<3 xxxx we all learn from each other…. in fact we never stop learning !!! isnt it great? xxxx

Yes I completely agree… I love discovering new ways of doing things, easier ways! Thanks hun :) xxx

Love your method! Those certainly are sharp edges! Thank you for sharing!!

I love this way. I have always thought about trying it as I hate covering cakes at all. But I am always scared to tip the cake upside down lol.

I have too many cake fears!

Thank you so much!

I think we all have, it was scary the first time, but as long as you have the boards to hold above and below and you do it quick, its fine!

Thank you so, so much for this very helpful tutorial!!! I really appreciate it :)

No problem at all Clara!

This is awesome Jerri! Thanks for sharing!

Brilliant method…..I am going to try it soon and will maybe post a pic of how it turned out!
Thanks so much for sharing, great idea xx

Thank you for sharing x

That doesn’t work with thin Sugarpaste, like my 2mm MTT or with typical German fillings like Fruit Cream Fillings ;)

No it wouldnt Torteneleganz, thats why it states thick sugarpaste and a ganached cake. Needs a firm surface unfortunately

Christine would love to see pictures!

Thanks for sharing..Beautiful tutorial

Wow, that is totally cool, out-of-the-box thinking! I love it!!

I think every tim ewe share a different way to do something it helps somebody so well done!

That’s brilliant, thanks for sharing :)

I am definitely trying this! I hate covering cakes and constantly battle the sharp edge challenge. I’ll let you know if it works for me. Thanks so much for sharing x

no problem good luck!

What a fab technique. MUST give this a try. Thankyou. x

I tried this on a buttercream cake but didn’t leave enough overhang so it ended up being naked at the bottom. I prefer using my flexi smoothers but I may try this method again in the future as the top of the cake was perfectly flat.

What a great finish. Can’t wait to try it out. Thanks for sharing.

Your method looks fantastic!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! I love to see and learn new methods, brilliant!!! :-) x

No problem at all, hope it works well for you if you try it! x

Thank you !!

Thank you so much for great tutorial. I really love it. I made this cake after review your tutorial.

oh its brilliant! well done!

Thanks so much. I followed your tips and it worked for me. Still room for improvement but I’m satisfied with the results

amazing well done, thank you for showing me! x

Wow! Have never worked with ganache, as it is not typical here in Puerto Rico. How does it behave in very hot and humid climates?

Would this work with a thick buttercream dirty ice instead? :D

Yes I have had people say they have done it with buttercream!

Thank you so much Jerri
