Milk Girl Cake Leveling Cream

Before decorating the "Milk Girl" cake, you'll need frosting to smooth its surface. The thinner frosting used for soaking the cake layers isn't suitable for decorating the outside. I offer a simple frosting recipe for smoothing the cake that will not only adhere well to the surface but also add flavor and aroma to the dessert.

To prevent the cream from separating, the butter and condensed milk must be at the same temperature.

The finished cream is quite thick and elastic, so it is perfect for leveling the cake.

Carefully coat the cake with the cooled cream. You can do this using a silicone spatula, offset spatula, or other specialized pastry tools.
