Smooth Flawless Dark Buttercream Icing!

How do you ice cakes in colored buttercream without making it darker with the hot metal scraper? How do you make a small batch of buttercream without air bubbles? How do you ice cakes without bulges? All of these questions will be answered in this video! When I work with colored icing, I use a slightly different technique when I frost cakes with it. You'll learn how to ice your cakes with smooth flawless dark buttercream and make them look beautiful and perfect!
