Any ideas? This cake isn't normally iced, but I want the kids to decorate it for mother's day. I was thinking cream cheese icing, but not sure if it goes......

Cream Cheese is my Fave on all cakes :D
Lemon would be good to or just dust some icing sugar on it.

:chef: Honey Cream Cheese Icing

100g cream cheese
3/4 cup icing sugar
1-2 tsp honey, warmed
2 tsp milk

Using electric beaters, beat the cream cheese and icing sugar in a small bowl until light and creamy. Add the remaining ingredients. Beat for 2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and fluffy, yummy!
