Wilton Royal Icing recipe


Currently in Wilton's course 2! It's been so fun and i've learned to make that royal icing that has been so fun!

You can use royal icing for dried sugar flowers, cookies, gingerbread houses and more. Great recipe and will keep for a very long time.

Recipe:

  • 3 tablespoons of meringue powder
  • 1lb sifted confectioners’ sugar
  • 5-6 tablespoons of lukewarm water (Use less and add if more is needed)

Place confectioners’ sugar and meringue powder in stand mixer and combine. Add water and beat for 7-10 minutes on medium speed. Your icing should resemble medium consistency buttercream when finished. Keep covered with a damp cloth while whipping to prevent drying out.
