"Icing on the cake" is an idiom used when talking about an extra incentive which is not necessary, but gives a great deal of pleasure. The phrase can also be applied to the following three whipped cream toppings—almost literally. While they are toppings, not icings, and are meant to be used on pie, not cake, they are definitely an extra incentive your guest will enjoy.
