White Icing

White icing, also known as frosting, is a sweet mixture used to cover, decorate or fill cakes, cupcakes and other baked goods. The primary ingredients of white icing are confectioners' sugar and butter or shortening. Other ingredients such as milk, vanilla extract, and food coloring may also be added. While it is delicious, white icing should be consumed in moderation due to its high sugar and fat content.
