Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    For a bridal shower, decorate one cake for the bride. Instead of making the groom cake, decorate that cake similar to the bride cake but use icing colors of the bridesmaid's dresses.
  • tip 2
    If desired, trim rounded top off layer. Place layer, bottom side up, on serving plate; frost.
