What do we have here?

So the saying goes, "That was the icing on the cake," implying icing is just an additional perk (or downfall, as it may be). It turns out people really love their icing. Cruising down the baking isle at Fresh Grocer, I saw the plethora of choices for cakes, cookies, brownies, and my favorite: the crazy varieties of icing! They had chocolate, vanilla, whipped, creamy, cream cheese, mint chocolate, low fat, greens, blues, pinks, confetti. The best (and most gourmet) variety I found was coconut pecan, the classic pairing for German chocolate cake. I suggest adding some pizzazz to your next batch of decadent chocolate cupcakes or cake with coconut pecan icing. Variety makes life exciting, no?
