frosting, icing, it is not a waste of butter and sugar, uk

If I knew you were wanking, I'd have iced a cake
Over in hp_britglish, schemingreader makes the mistake of asking what the stuff you spread on top of a cake is called. Hint: It ain't "frosting".

oncelikeshari thinks that butter icing is evil and wrong and should be stopped, or that it doesn't exist. I'm not entirely sure.

Either way, I want cake. :(

Short, but sweet.

	But then...how are we supposed to MAKE cakes? Baking requires butter and sugar! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Yeah, but that's in the cake. Putting it on top is, like, overkill 'n shit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Only if it's buttercream. Proper icing is nothing like that. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Seriously. I want to know what kind of weird-ass cakes she is making. Next thing you know, people will be wasting eggs in cake! Dogs and cats! Living together! MASS HYSTERIA! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	In my day, we made cake with two lemons and a paperclip! They just don't make it like they used to. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	You had lemons? We had to use stale dinner rolls, softened with our own tears. (Reply to this)(Parent)
