Easy Textured Buttercream Lines | Cake Icing Tutorial

Welcome back to the Abbie Cakes UA-cam channel! Today I'll be showing you an easy way to create textured buttercream lines (also known as ribbon lines) when icing a cake. I love doing these buttercream lines as it's so versatile. You can create a rustic or clean finish depending on your preference!
I'll be using a small offset spatula as it gives me the most control, but you can use a larger spatula for wider lines if you like. I hope you find this video useful and don't forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!

Which buttercream method did you prefer?

[@badmusbasirat4734]

Thanks so much for sharing.

I use a 789 tip. It's wide with a smooth edge on one side and ribbed on the other. Use an 18" or 24" bag with this tip because it's big. It works well.

Did you have your buttercream recipe? Thank you for your tips!

Does this work with whipped as well?

[@abbiecakesco]

Aghhhh I don’t use whip on cakes so I’m not entirely sure but I bet you could do it! Maybe won’t have as clean a finish but would still look lovely!

[@sbomthembu2641]

Can you use a spoon instead of a spatula

[@strawberrirxses]

Yea..I think that should work.
