- Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2011I wish I would've found this Item Sooner "Ateco Decorating Comb & Icing Smoother" this is so simple and it works so Great, so many times I used to Grab my Fork to make some sort of Design when I Make a Cake, however, this Comb is so much better and it gives that Professional look of an Experienced Decorator, like I was doing it for...Years! Its so easy to Create Designs and so much Fun.
It is Made of Aluminum and its not Flimsy at all, you can't even Bend it, ...well, don't try it. I wash it by hand so it will stay looking like New for a long time. Each side of the Comb has a different Design, even the smooth side is perfect just to Level the Frosting all around and Top of the Cake getting it ready for Decorating. I wanted to try it out and I already made a Cake and it Works Wonders, you can Create all kinds of Patterns and Designs, even works with Icing on Top of Sheet Cakes,...you know, I just Retired my Fork!...Thank You D.D.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2016This decorating comb and icing smoother is awesome. I do not know how I have ever made a cake without it (actually, I do, it is has been a very unsmooth cake, delicious, but not always pretty). I only needed the flat side, but I had to see what the other side did as well, and the ridge look is also very cool. It did not go with the particular theme of the cake I was working on, but I will DEFINITELY be using this for every cake I make in the future.
My cake was only three layers, so it worked fine length wise. However, I did not level the top of my cake, so it was a bit difficult to get the top and sides smooth together. That is definitely a user error though, not an issue with this tool.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2025The Pic shows two pieces.
I did not get the triangle too.
But for under $3. I'm not complaining to much
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2013We got this to make a wedding cake and am so glad I did! The variety of sides and designs was great. I have never used a plastic tool so I can't compare the quality to anything else. This one is aluminum and was easy to hold and use. I washed well and got the job done. Just be careful as if you aren't paying attention, the edges could be sharp.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2014This is a metal tool. The flat side is for smoothing the frosting of a cake, for example - to smooth buttercream in order to lay fondant over it. The other three sides will create a design in the frosting, instead of making it perfectly smooth. The instructions say to apply a thick layer of icing to the cake, then before the crust forms; dip the smoother/comb in hot water, shake off excess water, and draw it across the iced surface. Very simple and direct. If you hold it at an angle, you will remove less icing from the cake. Picture holding the tool completely perpendicular to the surface of the cake, with the patterned edge against the icing, then (keeping the entire edge against the icing) folding the hand that holds the tool in toward the cake. I'm not sure what the benefit is of making the tool rectangular instead of square, but the two long sides will easily cover a standard two-layer cake side. The small sides may need to be drawn against the icing twice, once at the top of the cake and once at the bottom. I had thought this was plastic acrylic and am pleased to see that it is metal and will hold up over time. With a lot of force, it can be bent, but will not bend during regular use.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2018This really works well for home bakers. With the 4 different types of sides, you can texture your cake in so many different ways. One recommendation is to hold it at a tight angle so that it works right. It really can dress up a cake to look professional with just a minimal practice..
- Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2016I bought it to smooth my icing. Works ok on top but better on smoothing sides of cake. when I placed the order looking at the pic I thought it was plastic and was surprised to find it metal when it arrived. Now I read the description! The item came scratched up but not a big deal since I'm just using it around the house.. It is very sharp so need to be careful with it. I can see myself using this for different pastry cuts in the future.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2022This is my favorite cake decorating tool, I don’t think I could do a cake without it. I mainly just use the flat side for scraping but having the option to do textures is a nice feature. It’s so much better than the plastic scrapers because you can heat it up and get that nice smooth final finish.

Had high expectations. But edges are so sharp and its very inconvenient to hold it at 45D while icing. Also the sharp edge scrapes the cake board.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a Smoother with a Straight Edge
Really looking forward to using this. I've been through many icing combs / smoothers in the past and they all have one flaw: rounded edges at the base which result in flared out icing at the bottom of your cake. I bought this smoother / comb because it has a straight edge at the base.
