Icing the Wilton way



Yesterday i decided to give another try at icing a cake the Wilton way. Turns out it came out rather well. Previously i've always had trouble icing cake the Wilton way. It was hard to smooth out and the icing surface never crust so when that happens the icing always stick to the grease paper whenever i tried to smooth out the surface. Finally i figured out what the problem was.... i always made the icing in stiff consistency so no wonder the icing was having a hard time sticking nicely to the cake... silly me hahahaha...all this time uhmmmm..... This time i made the icing thinner... i added more water....and taaadaaa like magic the icing smooth out beautifully and it didn't even stick to the grease paper at all. The only problem i have with the wilton icing is that it's soooo damn sweet. Nobody in the family would dare to eat the cake. They only took tiny pieces of the cake and scrap the icing to the side. Next project will try using just 2 cups of icing sugar and see whether the result comes out the same.
