s/o cakes clicky poll

The discussion of cakes mentioned several people liking the elite icing. I can't stand the elite icing. White birthday cake is probably my favorite dessert but I won't eat it with elite icing. I want to conduct an extremely scientific poll about the topic. [Poll]

Re: s/o cakes clicky poll

  • I like how "light" tasting the elite is, but I prefer the buttercream overall.

    What? You're an elite icing person. And I thought we could be friends. ;-)
  • I hate elite frosting. It tastes like oil to me. If there is cake with elite icing, I scrape off all the icing and won't eat the part of the cake that touched the icing. Yeah, I think it's that gross.

  • what the eff is "elite" icing?!
  • I absolutely love cake, specifically because I love sweet grocery store icing. It's one of my favorite foods (seriously). I get soooo disappointed when cake has elite icing! I don't even want the cake anymore.

    It's like Cool Whip...on a cake...

    But its not as tasty as cool whip. :p I wonder if only H-E-B that has elite icing?

    If elite icing is the default non-buttercream icing at HEB then I am ITA.  It is some nasty sh!t.

  • Sh*t, I'm not picky... if cake and frosting is put in front of me, I eat it. 
  • You are right.  Elite is disgusting.  Its a poor excuse for icing and I will not have it!
  • I'm lying.  I will have it.  But I won't like it as much as buttercream, and I'll b!tch about it.
  • I don't even know what "elite" is. Sad

     

    but I do know I love buttercream!

    I'm on this bandwagon - its delicious! I like how its fluffy and not so dense. However, I prefer buttercream from a "real" bakery over grocery store any day.
  • And I never knew that's what it was called - I always just referred to it as whipped cream frosting.

    Exactly! Elite is basically whipped sugar. Even the texture is wrong. Buttercream ... Well, the name says it all! Y-U-M!

    Now that I know what we're talking about, I'm an elite person.  Wink  Ever since I began making my own buttercream icing, I haven't been able to eat it.  I'll just hope I never find out the recipe for this kind and I'm good to go!

    Just FYI, "butter cream" frosting from the super market bakeries is almost always vegetable shortening, confectioner's sugar, and butter flavor. Smile   You're welcome.
