Thick Buttercream Icing. If your frosting is too runny itll melt and slide all over the cake. Yep just a little liquid a few drops at a time.
Post 3 of 5. If it gets too thin just add a little more powdered sugar too it but again just a little at a time. It needs to be a creamy consistency for icing the cake.

When you are frosting a cake its crucial to work with buttercream thats reached the perfect consistency. Yep just a little liquid a few drops at a time. If Your Buttercream Frosting Is Too Thick If your frosting feels too thick there is no reason to start over from scratch on a new batch. Yes you can add more liquid if its too thick to spread.
