  • About
  1. Use 1 recipe of Ornamental Frosting. These are generous amounts. Coat all layers with a thin glaze (See Frosting Facts).
  2. It will take about 3 c. frosting to cover all the layers. Tint remaining frosting.
  3. Place 4 strips of waxed paper under edges of bottom cake layer. Then frost sides and top of layer. Paper will keep doily free of any drips. Remove waxed paper when frosting is completed.
  4. Add second tier and frost; repeat with remaining two tiers. Dip small spatula in hot water to smooth sides and top ready for decorations. Tint 2 c. frosting a delicate pink using red food color.
  5. As a finishing touch, outline a fluffy design of the pastel pink frosting around rim of the serving plate.
