Treasured Tip #4

For a beautifully frosted cake, start by placing a tiny bit of frosting in the center of your plate.  When you place the first cake layer on top, it will not move around as you work.  Frost the top of this first layer, and then add the second cake layer.  Coat the entire cake with a small amount of frosting and place it in the freezer for about 10 minutes.  This thin layer will be able to hold all of the crumbs in place.  Finally, use the rest of the frosting for the cake's top and sides.  Voilà!
