Method: Beat all the ingredients together until the icing forms peaks. This should take 7-10 minutes at low speed with a heavy-duty mixer, or 10-12 minutes at high speed with a hand-held mixer. It is crucial to ensure that all utensils are completely grease-free for the icing to reach the proper consistency.

For a stiffer icing, use 1 tablespoon less water. When using a large countertop mixer or for a stiffer icing, use 1 tablespoon less water.

To thin the Royal Icing for pouring, add 1 teaspoon of water per cup of icing. Use a grease-free spoon or spatula to slowly stir the mixture. Add 1/2 teaspoon of water at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
