Pretty sure we can't tell you either as we have no way of knowing what your
mom made or what a dry frosting mix is. Why don't you just buy a can of
whipped frosting if whipped is what you want?

There used to be a marshmallow type frosting that was made from a dry mix
that my mom used to make too. I believe it was called 7 minute frosting mix.

My mother used to make a 7-minute frosting that we loved. However, hers was
made "from scratch," not a mix. She constantly stirred it in a double
boiler until it reached just the right consistency, then she "topped" it
with toasted coconut after spreading it on the cake. Yum!

For the record, I never once even considered sleeping with you. And
you know that. You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was
going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the
total blue.

After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3
years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of
romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY
MOVING IN WITH YOU?

That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the
screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too
spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands
down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least
he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar
at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2
years.

Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why
your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation
and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd
prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of
grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done
in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people
about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as
if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're
manic depressive mixed with habitual liar.

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.

We liked the mix fine, though I have had it from scratch too, but no
coconut.

I didn't even realize that 7-Minute frosting came in a box. I thought
it was a cooked frosting that you beat for 7 minutes.

Yes, that describes the 7-minute frosting that my mother used to make. She
stirred constantly and watched to get it to exactly the right consistency.
Done correctly, it would remain soft (and delicious) on the cake. If it was
overcooked, it would form a crust or "shell" after a few hours.

It used to many years ago, I believe some company still sells one that's
called "Fluff Frosting" or something like that.

I remember it when I was a kid. I think it was Jiffy. Add water and maybe
butter. I bought it a couple of times but realized that it was just as easy
to make it from powdered sugar.

Well, some people love it. I'm not into cake, frosting or anything like
that so I never tried it. But I would think if he/she wanted a powdered mix
it couldn't be any worse than that.

The one mom used to make occasionally was an envelope of dry mix, you added
boiling water to it and beat it for 7 or so minutes until it had soft peaks.

I use that for some things but I would probably add a drop of vanilla. I
use it more for a light glaze as opposed to a frosting.

I would add vanilla and also some butter. I don't like powdered sugar and
water at all.

Not if you make it from scratch in the home kitchen. But that's really

That was how we made donut glaze. And a little vanilla!

Not exactly "frosting" which normally has air whipped into it. More
like a basic icing.

Hmmm! My granddaughter prefers it to the "enriched" kind when we have
baking sessions. It's certainly much less nauseating than the rich
version, especially the ready-made variety that's loaded with corn syrup
and polywhatsits.

I hope you saved it, just in case you don't remember the ingredients since
there's more than one.

Except a list of ingredients does not equal a recipe. I am failing to
see how powdered sugar + water = fluffy frosting. In any case, water
is bland. I prefer to use lemon juice for the glaze.

It doesn't. Brooklyn made a comment that his dry frosting mix is powdered
sugar, which has nothing to do with the frosting mix that makes fluffy
frosting, he was just stating what he used, then Graham said powdered sugar
and water which I said was nasty, and of course Janet UK had to add her
usual catty remark, and it went on from there.

Why is it nasty... I often dust my cakes with plain powdered sugar, I
prefer that to thick gloppy frostings.

To me frosting a well baked cake is a garnish... I think a light
dusting of powdered sugar is the mostest with the leastist. When
served a heavily frosted cake I scrape off the frosting, then if the
cake is awful I don't eat it... heavy gloppy frosting is what people
do to hide crap cake.

I was responding to the water and powdered sugar with nothing else added. I
think it tastes nasty as frosting. I like to add butter, vanilla, etc. to
the powdered sugar.

I'd rather have two big hunks of good cake than one small piece of
heavily frosted crap cake

Lemon juice? Glaze? Who is talking about glaze? Fluffy white
frosting. Sorry, I don't have a recipe but it certainly wouldn't have
lemon in it. Maybe you're thinking about a glaze for a pound cake or
something...
