We tasted all the biggies — Betty Crocker, Duncan Hines and more — to find a couple of great frostings and some total duds.
It’s tempting to use prepacked frosting when birthday parties and bake sale time roll around, but just how good are those supermarket brands? To many people, it’s the thick, creamy swirls of vanilla frosting that are the best reason to say “yes” to a cupcake or slice of cake. That icing is sweet, luscious and decadent. Add sprinkles and it’s a party.
Typically sold in short cardboard containers, ready-to-spread frosting comes in lots of tempting flavors, plus some interesting “keto” options, but for this taste test, we stuck with vanilla, hoping to find an all-around workhorse worth keeping in the pantry. Good pre-made frosting is velvety smooth and fluffy, with such a delicious balance of vanilla, sugar and salt that it’s nearly as tasty as homemade buttercream. Bad frosting is gritty, greasy and so sticky, it’s hard to get it out of the carton. The worst leave a powerful bitter aftertaste that’s hard to forget.
