When icing cakes what is a crumb coat?

In order to have your icing on your cake be crumb free (most noticeable when icing a chocolate or dark cake with white or light icing) first ice your cake with a thinned out layer of the icing. (You can thin out your icing with water our milk.) ...don't worry about crumbs or the cake showing through at this point. You are basically "sealing in" the crumbs, ergo the name crumb coat. Pop your cakes in the frig, for 30 minutes to an hour to set the crumb coat of icing. Then apply a second coat, or finish coat to the cake, with thicker icing than the first, or crumb coat. This way you end up with a finish coating of icing that is crumb free and professional looking. Think of the crumb coat at the primer on your walls when you are painting. A good base coat make the finish coat smooth and even. Here is a link that explains: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-crumb-coat.htm
