This. Who cares what people do OP? People will be ok with some extra sugar lol. I don't like cake and frosting in general (but could crush a bowl of Doritos) but this seems like such an odd post.

A fresh cupcake doesn’t need an inch or two or three of butter icing. It’s there for aesthetics, to look pretty and appealing in the case or in the box. I think most adults know it’s proper form to remove most of it before actual consumption.

Are you the weirdo OP? I have never heard of anyone removing frosting from a cupcake. And I can't imagine this is in some "proper form" book. Just order something else if you don't like a cupcake with frosting.

SAME. Forget the cupcake - tub of Betty Crocker icing with a spoon. Sometimes I get fancy and make it myself.

Same. It’s very effective. Thanks, OP, for reminding me about what I’m “supposed to do.”

Right? Why exactly is an adult supposed to remove the frosting? So many people try to act superior with their declarations that desserts are too sweet.

When it’s 1-3 inches of buttered icing, you might as well pop a quarter stick cube of Kerrygold in your mouth. It’s just totally unnecessary and gluttonous.

Enjoy your single almond.

I understood that reference.

Everyone did.

Carrot cake cupcake with cream cheese frosting - literally the best.

But I also like a fancy cupcake with a thin layer of ganache.

and a big American cupcake with a layer of real buttercream.

Oh, and Asian bakery style whipped cream frosting

brilliant. This is the content I come here for.

I usually eat it, only if its too much and too sweet.

No

It depends on the icing. If it's gross whipped cream icing or cream cheese, or if it's heavily dyed, then I won't eat it. If it's quality buttercream, I'm eating it all.

Exactly this.

Do you think this agency is what Elon intended, but there was a typo (the f and g are right next to each other, after all), and he decided top just go with DOGE?

Elon is doing something right if you think of him even when discussing cupcakes.

Only on those cupcakes that are like 60% buttercream. I love buttercream, but some of these cupcakes are out here with more frosting than cake and it's just too much fat/sugar.
