How to Make Meringue Powder Royal Icing
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup (200g) meringue powder and 1/2 cup (120ml) cold water. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until completely smooth and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
- Gradually add 4 cups (500g) powdered (icing) sugar, one cup at a time, beating on low speed until fully incorporated after each addition.
- Increase mixer speed to medium-high and beat for another 2-4 minutes, or until the icing becomes thick, glossy, and forms stiff peaks. The icing should be stiff enough to hold its shape but still pipeable.
- Cover the bowl with a damp cloth or plastic wrap to prevent the icing from drying out. This will keep it workable for several hours.
