Perfect And Delicious Royal Icing Recipes

PERFECT AND DELICIOUS ROYAL ICING

Steps:

• Whip water and meringue powder on high speed in a large bowl using an electric mixer until fluffy and soft peaks form, 7 to 10 minutes. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, corn syrup, shortening, and vanilla extract while mixing on low speed. Increase speed back to high and beat until well-combined and smooth, about 3 minutes.

PERFECT ROYAL ICING

Steps:

• Beat first three ingredients, then thin with a little water, if needed.
• Add almond, vanilla, and butter flavoring.
• Depending on how many colors you want, divide it between several bowls.
• To decorate on top of original layer of icing, thicken with powdered sugar until desired thickness.
• Decorating works best when used in the decorating bags with tips.
• Also, before spreading thin icing over cookies, try putting an outline of thick icing from a small decorating tip around the edge of the cookie.
• This way, the thin icing will not drip over the edge.
