Upgrade The Look Of Any Frosted Cake With A Genius Paper Towel Hack
By J. Henley
With this simple cake hack, anyone can easily frost a cute, special dessert. Just combine the right kind of paper towel with any buttercream to give your cake a stenciled pattern.
It takes a thicker paper towel with embossed designs to accomplish this look. You can use a towel with little dots or one with a larger design, like circles or diamonds.
For this trick, the frosting should be dried a bit on top. Let the cake rest for 20 minutes in the fridge before applying dry paper towels to the top and sides.
Gently press the paper towel into the icing and leave it there for a few seconds before slowly removing it from the icing. This hack can also transform a store-bought cake.
