Hi! Here's my video on my 4 minute buttercream: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2WTmpathpyfa9U The recipe on my website is for a two or three layer 8" cake: www.britishgirlbakes.com/buttercream-frosting/

I appreciate your videos. I have this question. Basically when making a filling or adding a filling to your cake do you make the Border a little bit closer to the edge or closer inward the cake so that you can put the filling?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Ideally the outer edge of the piping would be flush with the outer edge of the cake, so that the piping doesn't bulge outwards beyond the edge of the cake.

Emily, is a naked cake essentially just a crumb coat?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Sort of! The difference is that you want the frosting to be super smooth for a semi-naked cake whereas for chrome coat it doesn’t really matter what it looks like because it’s going to be covered up. Chilling the cake is very important to limit crumbs for a semi-naked cake

@@BritishGirlBakes oh right! No boo boo's, then.
