Icing is made from powdered sugar and is used to cover and decorate cakes: birthday cakes, Christmas cakes, wedding cakes.
When one great thing happens, then another great thing happens on top of it, the second thing is the icing on the cake.
"Today I was promoted to head of the department! And they decided to give me a raise!" "Wow, that's the icing on the cake."
"Your wife is beautiful to look at, and she is a wonderful person!" "True, that's the icing on the cake."
"We won the case, and they are going to pay our legal expenses." "That's the icing on the cake."
"I've been accepted by the university, and they've offered me a position on the basketball team!" "That's wonderful! That's just the icing on the cake."
