How to Make Professional Decorators Icing
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup shortening, 2 tablespoons water, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. This may take 3-5 minutes.
- Gradually add 4 cups meringue powder and 8 cups powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Continue beating for another 3 minutes, until smooth and creamy.
- If the icing is too stiff, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time, mixing until desired consistency is reached. Remember, you want it thick enough to spread easily but not so stiff that it's difficult to work with.
- Your incredibly strong and smooth icing is ready for decorating!
