This frosting is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either.

The frosting was difficult to spread, and it didn't hold its shape well.

This frosting is amazing! I used it to frost a vanilla cake, and it was the perfect complement to the cake. The frosting was sweet and creamy, but not too heavy.

I'm not a big fan of buttercream frosting, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so light and fluffy, and it doesn't have that cloying sweetness that some buttercream frostings have.
