I’m trying to find what period the earliest recorded example of the phrase ‘The icing on the cake’ dates from. I’m writing something and need to know if my character would be likely to use this phrase in 1961.
Thanks folks.

This is one of my favorite idiomatic phrases of all the times, whenever I use it in my class, all of my students start smiling at me. The best thing about this idiom is “Dogs” and “Cats”, most of the humans like either cats or dogs, so do they the idiom.
