To frost a cake easier: after baking, cooling and removing from the pan, wrap a layer in wax paper and freeze. When ready to frost, bottom side up, brush off the crumbs and frost as usual! Much easier and nicer.
This is taught in most of the cake decorating classes. It helps keep the crumbs down and also makes the cakes very moist. I have been doing it for years, ever since I took two cake decorating classes. Only can do it if you have a freezer big enough to freeze the cake:)
