The invention is directed to a bakeable icing for use with a ready-to-use
dough. The icing is prepared from functional whey protein, and sweetener
and spreads across the dough upon heating or baking. The icing is applied
to a dough that may be provided in a form that includes grooves, score
lines, or a combination thereof, to facilitate separation of the dough
into pieces that can be baked into individual iced or frosted bakery
products such as cookies, muffins, brownies, or other pastries.
