I don't know, and that's just honest :) It will also depend on how much you whip it. It's enough for a normal 9" cake and you can freeze leftovers. I'm no cookbook author :)

With so many coats doesn't the icing end up really thick??

[cupadeecakes]

@CyanideAndChocolate - I guess "thick" is subjective, but no, it's not thick at all. Even though you are applying a few coats, they are thin coats.

What can I say that hasn't been said already? This has got to be the best cake decorating instructional video I seen yet. I feel like you really focused on teaching rather than gloating. Thank you. I will definitely subscribe. I would hate to miss any future videos that you make.

This was so helpful! You broke the process down in steps that we, amatuers, can really understand and likely apply. I also liked that you focused solely on smoothing the buttercream instead of talking about a million other things or possibilities that we tend to get from other tutorials. Thanks so much! I need one of the metal side scrapers now!
