What does it mean to use your noodle?

Why would you spill the beans?

Idioms can be confusing, but they help you to understand English and are a lot of fun to learn!

With clever multicultural illustrations, literal translations of the idioms, meanings in 2 languages, and English example sentences, Icing on the Cake explains common food idioms in a way that makes them easy to understand. It's a perfect book to teach culturally and linguistically diverse students.

Icing on the Cake includes bonus material to support English language learners and promote culturally responsive teaching, such as links to:

Information about the history of the idioms in the book
Additional food idioms, their meaning, and history
