hmmm... can a simple maple syrup or glucose can be used?maybe this is can be done to cupcakes also to avoid slipping icing... i did a trhead about this but was not able to get that much reply.

maimai, simple syrup is added to make the cake more moist and to infuse flavor. if your frosting is slipping maybe the cake is not cool enough before you frost it? or it could be your frosting recipe.

cupcakeshoppe, usually i cool my cake/cupcakes overnight before putting crumbcoat/icing... if making cuppies, i use RI (hard outside but marshmallowy inside). for cakes, i use choco ganache or butter cream then covered in fondant. my cuppies usually oily when cooled overnight... the recipe i use is oil based thin batter both for cakes and cuppies... myabe i need to set the RI first before keeping the cuppies on boxes.... though this only happens with cuppies even i use the same recipe for cakes and cuppies. sigh...
