Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

Hello, I’ve been shopping around looking for some more smoothers as mine have been used by my little boy to smooth some brickwork… 🙁

On Squires Kitchen website I have seen a Smedger and also curved edge Edgers – can someone help please – what are these used for? Please excuse my ignorance, I’ve only used ‘normal’ smoothers before!

Thank you!

thanks once again MIWL! I must have had my eyes closed – I always order from cake-stuff but hadn’t seen them!

I bought them a while back. I must say takes a bit of time getting used to but I love ’em!

Brilliant question, now ive discovered them, ive not seen these before, I tried to get a sharp edge with two smoothers recently and its not easy. I will be condsidering buying the sharp edge smoother one day, if I get any orders for cakes with sharp edges. Thank you

What a wonderful, yet simple and fantastic idea! I assume that it would work well for ganache finishings as well.
