What is the best icing for a cake?
The most used icing in the American stores is the professional cake decorators icing. The link in my resources has the full recipe as well as a video I created to show exactly how the make the pro icing. This is a recipe that I broke down from an industrial formula used in large manufacturing facilities for bakeries. I have used it for over 20 years. There is no butter in this recipe. The fat base is shortening. High ratio shortening is the best for this as it holds up wonderfully and allows stability. High Ratio Shortening is the preferred shortening over Crisco but you can totally use the Crisco and have really good results. The reason most home based cake decorators use Crisco is because the High Ratio shortening is not available in regular stores. High ratio is only offered through food service and distribution companies that sell to bakeries and larger manufacturing facilities. You can find it however online. There should be a link in the recipe and video on the Professional Cake decorators icing recipe that will tell you where to get it. That is if you are wanting to make it yourself : )
Why do you have to use apricot glaze on a fruitcake because I forgot to do it?
You do it for no other reason than to help make a covering layer or decoration adhere - In a Xmas cake this might be marzipan followed by Royal icing. If you're putting blanched almonds or other fruit and nuts on the cake the apricot glaze helps them adhere and then more is brushed over the topping to give it a golden veneer. It willmake no real difference to your cake if you forgot the apricot glaze. Many people pick off the marzipan and icing anyway.
