The consistency of the icing would depend on whether you are making a cake, a pie, a cupcake, or a bundt cake.
What types of icing are available to me?
If you are not prepared to make your cupcakes, you won't be able to make your own fondant or gumpaste icing due to the consistency of the icing. You can, however, make one or two of these types of icing:
Fondant: This is the most common type of icing, and the best quality. It is sold in the most expensive packages.
Creamer: This is a little more convenient for people who are not prepared to make their own fondant icing. It has a consistency similar to cream of tartar or cornstarch.

Yes, butter is a component of fondant icing, and gumpaste.
What does fondant icing require?
To frost a cupcake, you need a lot of butter. So much butter makes the icing too thick for cakes, but too thin for cookies. Butter, though a healthy ingredient, is very expensive. You need to find the amount of butter you need to make your icing, and to prepare your eggs. If your eggs are not frozen, they should be heated to 90 degrees before the butter is added to the mixture.

Yes, as long as you use a microwave oven. Make sure you have a clean, dry bowl and microwave cup, as you may burn your microwave. The microwave is good for up to 20 minutes.
Will cupcakes melt in the microwave?

Should I put cupcakes on a cooling rack?
What happens when cupcakes are left at room temperature for too long or too fast?
The cupcake may begin to soften or to fall apart. If you are preparing them for a home party toasting or toasting in a toaster, be sure to cook them for at least 15 minutes so they stay moist and stay crisp.
The cupcake is intended to be kept cold by refrigerating it after baking, rather than cooling it to room temperature since the frosting may begin to melt. The refrigerator will keep the frosting softer, so even if an uncut and unsweetened cupcake is left at room temperature, try to avoid heating it. If you want to bake these cupcakes at room temperature, it will be easier to keep the kitchen temperature at at least a few degrees above freezing.
Should I refrigerate the cupcakes after they are ready and then refrigerate them again?
Not unless they are made with the cream cheese frosting or any other liquid-based frosting. The frosting will take longer to cool and the cupcakes will seem to be more difficult to flip. But the cake will be more moist and flavorful with the cream cheese topping.
How do I make the cream cheese frosting?
For the cream cheese frosting, you'll need the cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk or buttermilk, and butter. If you're using milk instead of buttermilk, you may need to add a little bit of milk to the butter. You'll also need to add a little bit of cream if you want a good consistency.
Once you have the ingredients, make the frosting:
1. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until very fluffy.
2. Add the milk or buttermilk in a slow stream, mixing well between additions.
3. Add the butter and continue to mix until stiff peaks form. The frosting may look a little watery. Gently stir in the nutmeg, if using.
If you're using whole milk, use the cream cheese, milk, and butter for all the additions. To make the cream cheese frosting, use whole milk. If you're using a buttermilk-based frosting, use 1 tablespoon of buttermilk (or a little less if you prefer a thinner frosting) to the cream cheese and sugar. When you're ready to frost, refrigerate the cupcakes in their cups. The cupcakes should be a few degrees warmer than the fridge.
Where can I get cream cheese frosting at a local grocery store?
The cream cheese frosting at a local grocery store isn't very good. The store might have cream cheese but it is almost always cream cheese.
What is good milk or buttermilk for frosting a cupcake?
Milk is softer and has better flavor than buttermilk. Buttermilk is slightly softer and contains less water. Since you'll be stirring it frequently, it will probably need to be mixed in a mixer. If it doesn't look like you've tried to beat the milk, it may be soft.
How good is cream cheese frosting at cooking temperatures?
When making frosting at home, you could try to use the cream cheese until it is hard and then soften it in the microwave until it gets soft. Another option would be using a heavy cream cheese and powdered sugar. Try using one part cream cheese to two parts powdered sugar.
If I used the cream cheese frosting on cupcakes, would it be better?
The cream cheese frosting might make the cupcakes taste more like cupcakes. You could try using it on mini cupcakes if you like. Otherwise, the frosting is too liquid and it could cause a mess.
If I have a cupcake that already has cream cheese frosting, I can't use that on a full sized cake.
Cupcakes would need to be decorated before using the cream cheese frosting. If the frosting is too liquid, you can frost smaller cupcakes.
If I use the cream cheese frosting, will I need a mixer?
Yes, most cream cheese frosting recipes will do fine. To make it easier to frost many cupcakes at once, use your hands to mix it. It's a pretty complicated process, but you can probably finish it in about 10 minutes.
Does cream cheese frosting need to be refrigerated?
Yes, but since this is a good frosting that you can store, store it in the refrigerator and add it to your next cupcake before frosting.

With a butter knife, first cut the middle of the frosting with a round shape. Then use a sharp knife or a round glass to frost the surface of the cake.
Do you think I should make cupcake from the box?
You can freeze whole-grain cupcakes and use them as cupcakes.
How do I freeze whole-grain plain milk with plain flour, which is kind of hard to find?
Place the flour, milk, and baking soda in a large bowl. Add the wet ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon.
Add the dry ingredients in batches and stir. The dry ingredients should be mixed in the dry ingredients before adding the wet ingredients so the flour mixture will be easier to mix. Once all ingredients are added, fold in the nuts and sugar. The baking soda used to prevent the milk from curdling is not needed.
What are the proportions when I use butter and cream cheese for frosting a cupcake?

Yes, even noncupcakes. The same techniques for making cream cheese frostings using milk apply to other noncupcake recipes.
