Whenever you are entertaining, and want your cake to look like it came right out of a bakery, use a crumb coat.
A crumb coat is an old baker's trick that seals moisture in a cake and also makes frosting the cake much easier.
Basically it's a thin layer of frosting applied to a completely cooled cake. Allow this layer to set before you frost and decorate the cake.
When the final frosting is applied, it is virtually crumb-free, since any loose crumbs have been already sealed in the crumb coat.
Give it a try the next time you make a cake—for professional-looking results!
