Celebakes Meringue Powder, 16 oz.

Celebakes Meringue Powder is an excellent ingredient for a variety of baking and decorating applications. It can be used to make your own royal icing, stabilize buttercream icing, and create fluffy meringue cookies. Additionally, meringue powder can serve as an egg white substitute in numerous recipes.

When preparing royal icing, combine ¼ cup of meringue powder with ½ cup of cold water and beat until stiff peaks form. Gradually incorporate 4 cups of sifted confectioner's sugar, adjusting the consistency as needed. To keep the icing soft, add 3 drops of glycerin. Using a stand mixer will yield the best results.

For buttercream icing, dissolve ¾ cup of granulated sugar in ½ cup of boiling water, allow to cool, and then add ¼ cup of meringue powder. Beat the mixture until stiff peaks form, then stir in 1 pound of sifted confectioner's sugar and 2 to 2½ cups of white vegetable shortening.

To make meringue cookies, dissolve 1 cup of granulated sugar in ½ cup of boiling water until completely dissolved. Add 1/3 cup of meringue powder and beat the mixture until it forms high, stiff peaks. Fold in 1 teaspoon of vanilla or any other desired flavor or color. Pipe the meringue onto parchment or silicone-lined baking sheets and bake at 250°F for 40-45 minutes, until the meringues are set and can be easily lifted off the pan with dry bottoms.

As an egg white substitute, 2 teaspoons of meringue powder combined with 2 tablespoons of water equals the equivalent of 1 egg white. This versatile product allows you to customize your meringue by using Celebakes Premium Food Color Gel and flavorings.

Celebakes Meringue Powder is packaged in a 16 oz. container and is made in the USA. It is certified Kosher and should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from strong odors, with no need for refrigeration. This powder is a great addition to your baking arsenal, providing you with the tools to create professional-quality royal icing, buttercream, and meringue cookies with ease.
