@corrinnekil2019:

I can narrow this down to a dangling modifier (a modifier that does not logically refer to anything in the sentence) and a misplaced modifier (a modifier that modifies something, but is placed in the wrong place.) now, looking at the modifier "trying a variety of frostings", does this modifier logically modify something in the sentence?
