Celebakes Meringue Powder is great for making your own royal icing, stabilizing buttercream icing or creating fluffy meringue cookies. Meringue powder can also be used as an egg white substitute in a variety of baking and decorating recipes! Premium ingredients, made in the USA.
Royal Icing (dry hard icing): Into ½ cup cold water, beat ¼ cup meringue powder until stiff peaks form. Scrape the sides of the bowl and completely mix the water and meringue. Gradually add 4 cups sifted confectioners sugar until desired consistency is achieved. Add more confectioner’s sugar for stiffer icing. To keep icing soft, add 3 drops of glycerin. A stand mixer provides the best results.
Buttercream Icing: Dissolve ¾ cup of granulated sugar in ½ cup boiling water. Cool and add ¼ cup of meringue powder and beat to stiff peaks. Stir in 1 pound sifted confectioners sugar and beat until mixed well. Mix in 2 to 2½ cups white vegetable shortening.
Egg White Substitute: 2 tsp of meringue powder and 2 tbsp of water equals 1 egg white.
