Frosting the Cake

  1. Put first layer cake on platter and spread some of the frosting mixture on, spreading just to the edges of the layer.

  2. Put 2nd cake layer on top of that. Pour the rest of the frosting mixture on the top and spread so it just spills slightly over the edges of the top.

  3. You will see the cake edges with frosting sliding down the sides, but not completely covering the sides.
