In the video, we see a close-up of a cake with white frosting on top. The cake is on a plate, and a person is using a knife to spread the frosting evenly over the top and sides of the cake. The knife is moved in a circular motion, and the frosting appears to be thick and creamy. The cake itself is not visible, but we can see the brown crust of the cake peeking through the white frosting. The person's hand is visible as they hold the knife, and they seem to be focused on making sure the frosting is spread evenly.
