Royal Icing is the normal traditional hard white icing, made from the mixture of icing sugar and egg white (I think) while butter cream is the soft, creamy one. I can easily see that both have their merits and demerits, like butter cream may be unstable and melt on a hot day, but from an eater's perspective, I find royal icing totally useless because I don't fancy ingesting hard concentrated sugar so I peel it off and throw it away. Personally I prefer the butter cream because it is more edible. Professional bakers and eaters what is your take on the matter. 2 Likes 1 Share |

For me, with the knowledge I've garnered from making confectioneries - I'd say Butter/Cream Icing cuts it better for me and most clients. It's one topping on cakes/confectioneries that people can't ordinarly resist, even weight watchers wanna take a finger lick! *smacks lips* Hmmmm.....yummyy...... 1 Like |

Butter cream is the favorite of almost all cake lovers. People rarely ask for royal icing now. For me royal icing is basically used to design fondant cakes. 2 Likes |

I would go for butter icing, just that it doesnt dry quickly. Vote Rokiatu in finals today, she needs your vote. https://www.nairaland.com/1986755/miss-nairaland-december-2014-contest |

Medunah: Butter cream doesn't dry at all. It only hardens if refrigeratee but becomes soft within minutes of leaving the refrigerator. |

I like both though. I love the fact that royal icing dries on the cake. |
