The IcingAid tool consists of a "exoskeleton" element that comes in cubes or cylinders meant to look like base iced cakes. The bottom of the frame holds a small projector that shines designs and patterns outward so the baker can practice their frosting skills and techniques right on the exoskeleton without the need of a real cake. The small projector is removable and can stand on its own to project designs onto real cakes for tracing or guidance.
