Ice the Sides
With the cake top securely glued to the florist foam, use the same acrylic paint medium/acrylic paint mixture you used for the top, to ice the sides of your miniature or dolls' house cake. Use a flat toothpick, or the glue bottle or syringe filled with acrylic paint/medium mix to ice the cake sides. Ice opposite sides, then set the cake aside to dry. Ice the remaining sides when the first two are dry and you can hold the cake.
To ice small pieces of cake, use a pin set into the bottom of the cake to hold the cake piece while you ice it. (remember to ice only the sides which would be on the outside of the cake with heavy frosting, use diluted acrylic paint to color the cake parts and allow the cake color to soak into the foam.
Set all pieces aside to dry.
