Decided to give this one a try tonight, since I will do anything to try to get my kids to eat vegetables! This was very tasty and different! I baked a box yellow butter cake mix and added some pineapple chunks to the batter. This was a very good combination with the avocado icing! This is my new favorite cake, and my 2 and 4 year old daughters loved it too! I'm trying to figure out if I can freeze the remaining icing since I didn't use it all, but I'm guessing the oils may not hold up in the freezer?

I got a real kick out of the whole avocado episode and upon seeing the frosting, I had to try it for myself. I was pleasantly surprised to find it tasted refreshingly different, and very tasty! As for the "highly good chef" (Anonymous, I think that until you've managed to spell "avocado" correctly (much less decide whether it's a fruit or a vegetable--and it IS a fruit, you should just relax and let Alton do his thing. Moreover, you call AB a terrible chef, and he has stated himself that he is NOT a chef, but rather a home cook looking to explore the science and practice of food and cooking! I love this recipe.

If you were the "highly good chef" you claim to be you would know an avocado is a FRUIT not a vegetable as you say.....
