Well most people probably already know how to do this, but I just did my first one and thought I’d write ‘er up for those of us who are not a baking extraordinaire! 🙂 Check out this best homemade icing ever recipe!
1. Bake the cake in 2 round trays and let cool (I made the mistake of not waiting long enough to do this – I am just too impatient!)
4. Put the second cake right side up on top of the first cake. A handy dandy cake leveler would make the cake very level and professional. As you can see, mine ended up just a teensy lopsided.
5. Put icing on the sides first, in upwards strokes.
6. Ice the top of the cake in swirls, and decorate how you wish!
Ta Da!
