Question on icing

[Mphisto]

1) Can you ice other parts like your wrist and ankle?

2) I was told that I should ice it for 20mins and let it rest for 20mins (Right?Wrong?), if it's so, how many times should I repeat it?

Thanks

Yes, you can ice your wrists and ankles. I'd probably do 15 minutes on 20 minutes off, but that's just me. Just don't leave the ice on for too long and you'll be fine. Here's a link for you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RICE_(medicine)

Before icing cake, professional bakers trim off edges if they are dark and level off top if it is not flat.
• To keep flat cake plate clean, cut strips of waxed paper about 3 inches (8 cm) wide; slide strips partway under edge of cake so cake is framed.

• To prevent crumbs in icing, mask cake with thin layer of icing. Chill until firm. Spread remaining icing over top. Pull waxed paper strips out from under cake.

• Cover iced cake with cake dome. Or stick toothpicks in inconspicuous spots into cake; drape plastic wrap loosely over toothpicks, making sure wrap doesn't rest on icing.
