Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Can meringue powder be used for royal icing?
No, its consistency, which is sweeter and less firm than pure powdered egg white, is not suitable for royal icing. For royal icing, use our 125 g Powdered Egg White.
What's the difference between meringue powder and powdered egg white?
Meringue powder already contains sugar and stabilizing additives (thickener E466, acid E330), and is ready to use for meringues and pavlovas. Pure powdered egg white, with no added sugar, is more versatile and suitable for royal icing.
Can you make American buttercream with this powder?
Yes, mix 190 g of vegetable shortening, 35 g of water, 450 g of powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon of meringue powder, then add 40 g of water until smooth.
