Now, I'll show you how to frost the top. You want to frost the toe section about three
inches down and then along the side about a one inch all the way around. I'm using a
smaller spatula. Because, it's a little more detailed work here. And, we've done the sides.
I've wiped around and cleaned up the sides. And, you can take this lip that we've built
up here and use that to spread over the top. So, first fill in that area and then we'll
smooth it out. Ok. So, now you take the edge and you just kind of bring it over and that
smooths it. Rounds the edge a little bit and smooths it out. Now, we'll frost down here
about an inch. Just very gently, not getting too close to the cake. And, just gently pushing
that side pushing that edge over. We'll go over the sides and clean up the top again
one more time once we get it coated. Ok. Now, it looks a little bit messy right now. So,
we'll go just smooth the edge and build up that little bit of a lip there and smooth
this edge coming around.
And, then you just take your knife and with a motion starting vertically here and then
sweeping over horizontally. And, then just lifting up a little bit when you come to the
other section. And, see how that rounds off the edge. Continue that all the way around the cake.
Just very gently cleaning up that edge. And, then the center here we're going to pipe some
white frosting. Every time that I swipe the edge over, I have frosting. I take a little
frosting off. Then, I want to clean it on the edge of my bowl before I go for the next
section. And, then we'll do the toes. Ok. So, that's nice and smooth. And, do the same
thing for the second slipper.
