How to Prepare & Cover a Cake with Icing / Fondant

Please help us to find bad videos. Broken or unappropriated video content?
Hi and welcome back to my kitchen. For me one of the most important things when it comes to making cakes is making sure you have a well covered cake as a base to add your design. Now I usually refer to it as icing, but icing is exactly the same as fondant or sugarpaste, and in this video tutorial I show you how to prepare your cake, and cover it to get smooth sides and that sharp edge along the top.

I have put a link to all the equipment that I used in this video on my blog at:
