To level cream on a cake, apply the cream, go around the cake a few times, then smooth out the top. Continue smoothing both the sides and top until you achieve a relatively even surface.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
- Apply whipped cream generously around the cake.
- Smooth the sides using a spatula or scraper, rotating the cake as you go, to remove excess cream.
- Smooth the top surface in a similar fashion, working from the center outwards.
- Repeat the smoothing process until the desired evenness is achieved.
