The video shows a person using a spatula to spread white frosting on a cake. The cake is placed on a rotating stand and the person is seen smoothing the frosting over the top and sides of the cake. The frosting is thick and creamy, and the person is careful to ensure that it is evenly distributed. The cake itself is not visible, but the frosting appears to be of a high quality and is applied with precision. The background is dark, which contrasts with the white frosting, making it stand out.
