Delicious! I honey instead of corn syrup and it made a world of difference, the flavour of the honey shined :) -

I love this frosting! I still had sugar undissolved after it was beat for 10 minutes, this is probably due to the bowl I had this in. Put this on my son's 1st birthday cupcakes and had more than enough. Thanks! -
YUMMY! Thanks for the great recipe. DELICIOUS! -
OK, this frosting is really, really good!! I used the vanilla extract this time and loved it. I did save some extra (leftover) icing and added almond extract to see if I would like it, and it was wonderful too!! I'm going to try it on my next vanilla cake! Thanks for posting.
