MERINGUE POWDER – For Baking, Decorating, Buttercream, Royal Icing, Meringue Toppings, Cookies, Pies, Frosting, Gingerbread Houses, Mexican Sugar Skulls, Easy to Use, Egg White Substitute, 1 Pound Pouch

Description

A powder that is used for producing meringue, the topping used for pies and
various other desserts. Made from dried (dehydrated) egg whites blended with
sugar, gum, corn starch, and flavorings, Meringue Powder is typically combined
with water and then whipped to produce a meringue topping. Like all other
uncooked egg products, meringue powder is pasteurized so it is very useful
when preparing dishes requiring uncooked meringues. Recipes often suggest
using Meringue Powder rather than raw eggs due to the concern with adding raw
egg ingredients into foods not being cooked. The powder has a long shelf life,
lasting over a year when kept in a cool dry area.

Features:

• If you love decorating roll-out cookies or piping flowers, chances are youve used meringue powder to make your icing. Meringue powder is a must for making royal icing, meringue cookies and stabilizing marshmallow or whipped cream frosting.
• Made mostly of dried egg whites, meringue powder is a baking substitute that you can use instead of raw egg whites. Its used mostly in making meringue, frosting and royal icing.
• It is designed as a substitute for recipes that call for egg whites beaten to stiff peaks. Its also used to stabilize frostings and other treats to prevent drooping.
• Store your meringue powder in a cool, dry place. While it does contain eggs, it does not require refrigeration.
• Since meringue powder is a dehydrated product, it has a long, healthy shelf life, and will last you a long time!
• Probably the most know use of meringue powder is to make royal icing. Royal icing is considered the food glue of the cake world. You can use royal icing on cookies, gingerbread houses, for flowers and more.
• It's easier than you think to whip up mouth-watering frostings without having to crack a single egg with our convenient, time-saving powder. Simply add water and sugar and you're well on your way to billowy white clouds of meringue or smooth royal icing. Beat in water and butter to make luscious buttercream icing.
• When a recipe calls for whipped egg whites that hold stiff peaks, this powder can do the job. Raw egg whites are the gold standard, but this is a suitable alternative. Royal icing, piped meringue cookies, the topping on lemon meringue pies, or pavlova are examples. A small amount also stabilizes frostings so that they hold their piped design and shape.
