Introduction

This smooth, hard-drying icing is perfect for making decorations that last. It is also useful as a "cement" to fasten decorations together. Royal icing is edible, but not recommended for icing cakes.

Ingredients

3 Tablespoons Wilton Meringue Powder
1 lb. (4 cups) confectioners' sugar
6 Tablespoons warm water*

* For stiffer icing, use 1 tablespoon less water

Directions

Beat all ingredients until icing forms peaks
(7-10 minutes at low speed with a heavy-duty mixer,
10-12 minutes at high speed with a hand-held mixer).

NOTE:
Keep all utensils completely grease-free for proper icing consistency. Icing will not harden properly if there is ANY amount of grease in it.

Recipe makes 3 cups.
