    If it's made with whipped egg whites, then frosting. Or you can get more specific like butter-cream frosting.

    It's two different things so I voted both!

    Frosting is the swirly stuff on cupcakes.

    I don't know what the smurf Megan is on about because THIS is icing http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/content/k...cake/image.jpg

    Icing isn't ice and frosting isn't frozen, so I never really got either terms.
    This twenty-year-old boy was distinguished from childhood by strange qualities, a dreamer and an eccentric. A girl fell in love with him, and he went and sold her to a brothel...

    Get out.

    They are DIFFERENT.
    They can be used interchangeably. You know, like people do all of the time. Even the dictionary agrees: Icing | Define Icing at Dictionary.com
    Just because a whole bunch of people started using the terms wrong to the point that we had to change to make up for rampant dumbness doesn't mean it's incorrect.

    Well I dunno how it is in Crazyland but in the United States of FREEDOM, frosting and icing are two different things and displayed on different shelves in every store.
