How to Get Perfectly Smooth Buttercream on Your Cake

[@lauraandlisa381]

That's me. I spend about 2 hours smoothing my buttercream when I make 4 birthday cakes a year for my family. I realized that making the buttercream a little smoother makes it easier. Just add a little extra milk. Beautiful finish Amy!

What buttercream you using looks fab x

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

It’s my creamsicle buttercream. Posted not too long ago

[@Ndelwa_mntolo13]

What color is your buttercream if I may ask

[@vickysloan7776]

Amy where do you order your scraper? I am in the UAE and searched on amazon but can't find excep for the tall PME one..when delivered it was warped. Thanks for your tutorials..I share it all over!

[@CakesandStuffbyNikisha]

Hi Amy can you tell me how you made the color of the buttercream?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

This is my Creamsicle butter cream and I added orange flavored Kool-Aid

[@CakesandStuffbyNikisha]

Oh thank you

[@truemakeup801]

Where do you get your cake drums? Mine hold onto the grease and looks splotchy . Also I love your turntable! Is it from Amazon? I would love if you linked the products you use as a new cake decorator I would love to know the good products from the bad 🥰🥰

[@nataliemartinez4232]

You always do an amazing job! How cool is your cake and frosting when your doing this? Do you chill both the cake AND the frosting before this step?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

No just the cake. The frosting is room temp

[@catherinemartin8633]

Great tutorial Amy I'm glad its not just me, as it takes me ages also to get my cake smooth and I agree some days i can have success and other days its a total disaster. Some days I am more particular and other days I just get to a point of that will do and hopefully the drip hides it

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Haha yep!!! All of this me!

[@westan08]

how do you keep the cake from sweating😓?!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Warm it up SLOWLY!! Freezer to fridge overnight

[@antoniaregan7263]

I never make enough buttercream and always runs out but people can do it with that much xx

[@Awanlarat675]

20, 30 minutes doing this . oh I glad I in the same situation. Never let my interest for this

[@zubairmuhammad326]

I think i can never ever be adept in this part....as more i smooth the cake...more cream is scraped,making it a naked cake....lolsss

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Too much pressure then while you’re scraping. Use much less pressure
