Elle, here are a couple of Icing recipes I use.
(Cream Cheese Frosting-)
30g -butter
1& 1/2 - Cups of Icing Sugar
60g - cream cheese
1- teaspoon lemon rind
1- Tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 - cup coconut
Beat butter and cream cheese until creamy. Add remaining ingredients, beating well. Spread on cake and sprinkle with coconut,or decorate as desired. I like this Icing for the kids, as it doesn`t run everywhere.
OR
(Glace`Icing.)

1- teaspoon butter.
Sift icing sugar into basin.Add lemon juice and buter and stir until smooth. Place basin over hot pan of hot water and stir until glossy. Spread over cake or cup cakes as required. Elle,hope this helps these are our favourites.
