So I'm torn. On the one hand they where delicious. On the other hand, it seemed like an overwhelming amount of icing… Thoughts?

According to my wife, professional icing sous, that is the perfect amount.
I grew up in a half container of the cardboard tube icing household. Boy how did she show me the error of my ways.
Well done, recipie pls.

Maybe a bit much, but it’s not crazy.

No. Gotta have all that extra to cover the sides when you pull them out

It could use more

You can NEVER have too much icing. Weirdos who don’t like it can scrape it off.
But that’s about what mine look like as long as you have extra for dipping.
I make mine with heavy cream and cream cheese so it has the extra fluffy quality too.

r/brandnewsentence IMO, there can never be enough.

Did someone imply it was too much? Disown them.

I can still see a cinnamon roll so it’s not enough

I feel like it’s too much. A good cinnaroll will already be very moist. With that much icing, if warmed it’ll be nearly soggy.

Yes. Those are very bad for you. Send them here. We will take the bullet for you!

I’ll taste test them for you and let you know 🙋

It’s more than I’d like, but then, I don’t have to eat it all. I don’t have much of a sweet tooth, in full honesty, so I’d take half of one on those, scrape half the icing off, and walk away smiling.

My teeth hurt just looking at it.

It appears I’m in the minority that thinks photo 1 is the perfect amount

Is this a trick question?

Looks like the rolls my mom used to make growing up. So they look perfect to me 😉
dromCase
Nope, they’re perfect.

Well yes, but actually no.

Are they good without icing? Then doesn’t matter how much icing, it’s subjective.
Are they not good without icing? Then doesn’t matter how much icing, it makes them better.

This is a weirdly good visual example of how much context matters. All together in the pan, it immediately looks like too much frosting. The one by itself looks absolutely perfect (like “platonic ideal of a cinnamon roll” perfect, good job, damn).
Since you (probably) eat one at a time, it’s the perfect amount of frosting.

No

Any icing is too much for me, but hey it’s your baking not mine! Plus they look good.

That’s fantastic, gimme 14 of em right now.

Can one put too much icing on a cinnamon bun? Asking for a friend
SagebrushID
I just pulled a batch out of the oven 1 minute ago. Will be dousing them with frosting in about 10 minutes. I hope I made enough frosting to make them look as good as yours!
BoxBird

This is the correct amount of icing 😂
TatiIsAPunk
Nope 😍
Li54
No. Should be swimming in it

If there’s too much icing on these buns for you, please send them my way 🙏!

Looks so yummy

No

Pretty sure this needs an NSFW tag because that’s just making me think of all the dirty things I’d do with those rolls.
Ihibri
It’s impossible to overdo the icing!
Outrageous_Border688
Perfect amount of icing. They look amazing!
Dogmoto2labs
I can see the rolls, so I would say no, not overdone.
fuzzius_navus
I prefer them sans frosting – those buns looked great.
However, a thin coating of cream cheese frosting is a treat u appreciate.

Like the words you are using make sense to me, but not in the way you used them. Is it possible to “overdo the icing?” Ever?
