This is the best cream cheese frosting I've ever had. It's perfect for hummingbird cake, but it would also be great on other cakes or cupcakes.

I'm not a huge fan of cream cheese frosting, but this one is amazing! It's so smooth and creamy, and it doesn't have that weird tang that I usually don't like.

This cream cheese frosting is the perfect topping for hummingbird cake! It's light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. I love that it's not too heavy, so it doesn't overpower the cake.
