What icings does Freed's Bakery offer?
Freed’s Bakery of Las Vegas is famous for our Buttercream icing. Our cooked, European Buttercream recipe comes from Vienna, and we use this signature icing on all of our ready to purchase cakes. The ingredients used in our Buttercream icing include butter, margarine, powdered sugar, and eggs. As most of the ingredients used are yellow, the icing has a light yellow tint to it.
We also offer our Rosette icing, our 50/50 Blend (made with our Buttercream and our Rosette icings), Whip Cream for our dessert and birthday cakes, a Non-Dairy Whip Cream icing during the winter months, and Fondant icing to create a hard shell look.

What is Fondant Icing?
Fondant icing is a cooked sugar icing. Many people confuse Fondant with Marzipan, which is made from almonds. There is no taste to Fondant other than a sweet sugar taste. The consistency is delicate, but a little chewy. To use fondant icing, the cake must first be iced with Buttercream, Rosette, or 50/50 icing.

WEBSITE CAKES
All of the cakes on our website are cakes that we have
done or continue to do regularly. They
vary in complexity and style. Some cakes
need just a day or two to do while other cakes require more time due to their
complexity or our production schedule.
Please try to give us as much time as possible to order these cakes.
EXTREME
With all of the cake shows on television cake decorating
has gone to a different level. Every
week we do some sort of Extreme cake at Freed's. Some of the extreme cakes that come to mind
are a full life size body for Body's The Exhibit at the Tropicana Hotel, Terry
Fator's cake for a party at his home as seen on TLC's first season of Fabulous
cakes, a replica of some of the hotels in Las Vegas for a surprise birthday
party for father and son as seen on TLC's second season of Fabulous Cakes, DJ
Pauly D of Jersey Shore celebrated his 29th Birthday with a cake from Freed's
Bakery. To see these cakes and other Extreme cakes from Freed's Bakery check

cakes and videos to watch on our Freed's Bakery Facebook page.
