How to Frost a Cake with an Icing Spatula
First, apply a thin crumb coat and chill the cake. Then load the wide spreading surface with buttercream and hold the comfortable grip handle at a shallow angle against the side, turning the turntable as you sweep. For the top, spread from the center outward with long strokes, then use the blade's edge to smooth. To get smooth buttercream on a cake, keep the blade clean and warm between passes, and use light pressure on final passes. Yes — a 10-inch icing spatula like this one is ideal for frosting layer cakes: the wide blade covers more surface per stroke for a flatter, smoother finish than a narrow spatula.
The Best Way to Hold a Cake Icing Spatula
Grip the handle firmly but relaxed, with your index finger along the top for control. Angle the blade at roughly 30–45 degrees against the cake side, and let the turntable do the motion for even pressure.
