Smoothers and smoothing tools
Fondant smoothers, edge smoothers, and smoothing tools for cakes with sharp edges and flawless surfaces.
Smoothing fondant and buttercream
The fondant smoother (often used in pairs) removes pleats and creates sharp edges. The edge smoother and angled spatula even out buttercream for a neat finish. Two smoothers work on the top and sides at the same time.
Finishing techniques
For a professional finish: rotate the cake on a turntable, smooth the chilled cream (for buttercream, warm smoothing melts away marks), then define the top edge. For fondant, smooth from top to bottom, folding the pleats under.
