For the best volume, ensure your egg whites are at room temperature and free from any traces of yolk. If you don't have a candy thermometer, test for doneness by rubbing a small amount of the mixture between your fingers; it should feel completely smooth and free of any graininess from the sugar. Store leftover icing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Rewhip before using.

Jan 4, 2025My family loved this icing! It's not too sweet, which is exactly what I was looking for. I'll definitely be making this again.
