Non-chocolate brown icing.

I'm making a cake.

I'm taking photos of it, don't worry.

But till then... I've decided to just post that making non-chocolate brown icing is challenging.

"Huh?" you ask...

The only request I received on the cake (it's for a friend's party tonight) was from his wife: "Chocolate cake with vanilla icing."

Thing is though, the design of the cake I had decided on called for brown icing.

So, I had to make brown (non-chocolate) vanilla icing.

In case you're wondering, the coloration is a combo of vanilla and black, red, and yellow food dye.

And I only got a little dye on my hands. Bonus points.
