Ice on the cake
Idiom : Ice on the cake
An example :
Chong Wing Wun from Hong Kong writes : Could you please explain the meaning of put the ice on the cake?
Guessing : Something good happened, and another also good for.
Maening :
The expression is put the icing on the cake, not the ice. Icing is made from powdered sugar and is used to cover and decorate cakes, particularly birthday cakes, Christmas cakes and wedding cakes. The icing on the cake is what makes a good thing even better, although it is not something that is essential : England's third goal in the second round World Cup match against Denmark was the icing on the cake and capped an extremely efficient first-half performance.
