Notes

– If the consistency of your icing is too thin, add some more powdered sugar (¼ cup at a time) to thicken it.
– If the consistency of your icing is too thick, add some more mango puree (1 tablespoon at a time) to thin it out.
– This frosting is enough for filling and icing one 8×2 cake or 24 cupcakes.
