the sugar is added to cakes to make it taste sweeter and let other things in cake feed on it.

To make the cake taste sweet. If you are referring to the scientific properties of sugar, then ill tell you that sugar is a disaccharide and its function is for energy transport. Sugar its self, on the other hand, would just alter the flavor of the cake and make it taste sweet. I hope this helped.

Cake Icing is a mixture of butter, sugar and flavouring you put on top of a cake.

There is no "cake powdered sugar". Powdered sugar is made from sugar, which is ground into a powdered form, with a minute amount of corn starch added to prevent it from "caking" or lumping.
