Boiled Icing Recipe

                 This is a butter free icing recipe for your cakes or cupcakes. This is also called marshmallow icing because it tastes like marshmallow.

Ingredients:

6 pcs egg whites

2 cups sugar

1 calamansi (optional)

¾ cup water

1 tsp cream of tartar

1 tsp vanilla

Procedure:

• Make the syrup. Put the sugar and the water together in a sauce pan. Add the extract or juice of the calamansi. Boil the syrup until it becomes thick or until it creates thread when a little of the mixture is dropped from a spoon. You can use by treading method by holding a spoon of the mixture high above saucepan.
• While cooking the syrup, beat the egg whites in a bowl using a mixer. When small bubbles form, add the cream of tartar and continue beating until peaks form.
• Slowly pour the hot syrup over the beaten egg whites while beating. Continue beating until it becomes fluffy and it holds its shape.
• Add the vanilla and beat it until blended.
