Royal Icing
Royal Icing is thought to get its name from having been the traditional icing for fruitcake – the wedding cake of choice for English royalty. An advantage to using royal icing is that it seals in the freshness of the cake. Below is a recipe that you can use with a fruitcake recipe or to decorate just about anything. If you need to adjust the thickness, add a little milk or a little more confectioners sugar.
