Things You'll Need:

Step 1
Take your cooled cake and using your spatula drop about half of your icing on top of the cake.
-
Step 2
Start to spread the icing over the top in a VERY thin layer. Once you have the top covered, spread icing over the sides. This is the crumb coat. Put it in the freezer for the icing to harden.
-
Step 3
After about 15 minutes remove the cake from the freezer and using a clean cake spatula frost the cake. To smooth the icing try dipping the spatula in very hot water.
-
Step 4
Put it in the freezer for about 10 more minutes. When you remove it, lay a sheet of notebook paper over the cake and gently rub it. This will smooth out any imperfections!
