The crumb coat is …
The crumb coat is only part of the key, the rest is a light hand when frosting the cake. I also use a 789 tip and plenty of frosting, it’s easier to remove frosting than it is to apply more. Start with a ton of frosting on the cake after the crumb coat and remove as you go. Hope that helps!!

I love this recipe …
I love this recipe xD Thanks! But, but, but. I had an issue @_@ I used your regular vanilla buttercream to spread on the chocolate cake, and even after crumbcoating it, there were still SO MANY chocolate cake crumbs in the finished product. It looked like oreo ice cream. I’m a complete beginner to caking, so It’s probably just me, but d’ya know how I’d be able to fix this?

Hi, i want to double-confirm that all the while you’ve mentioned “cream”, it’s “heavy cream” you meant?

Thank you. Thank …
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Can’t wait to try this one. My daughter’s 2nd birthday is coming up and I am planning to make a yellow cake with buttercream using your recipe of course. It will be a wildlife safari theme. Thank you so much for sharing your recipes with all of us. Your chocolate cake looks scrumptious.
