How to taste the icing of a cake without leaving any marks in the icing?!


Question: I remember in a repeat of a really old episode of NCIS this women asks Gibbs something about whether he has any other skills and he says: "I can taste the icing of a cake without leaving a print." This, if possible, amazes me. Any ideas of how it could ever work? Or is it just something fantastical and unrealistic the script writers just made up?

You carefully run the bottom of a spoon on the flat part of a cake, so it sticks, but you can match the spread pattern of the rest of the cake.

Oh you sneaky thing you. Remind me to never eat at your house...LOL!

I suppose that you can wait until the icing hardens and then try.

carefully use a butter knife. just a guess that's what I would do.

Well aside from covering your tracks...think the solution he was speaking of here...just lick it...no print (in the technical sense of the word).

Not a pleasant thought though.

This one is too easy!!

You take the sample from the bowl (or can of frosting);

thus, no knife or tongue marks on the cake!
