Question: What’s the secret to frosting cakes properly?
Answer: For a perfectly smooth finish, do what bakers call a "crumb coat": after the cake cools, apply a thin coat of frosting over the entire cake, then place the cake in the fridge to let the frosting set. Then, frost as usual — the first coat of frosting will keep the crumbs locked in, so they won't mar the surface of your cake.
