In this Wilton Cake Course (Class Two), I am learning how to make flowers using Gum Paste and Fondant.
For next week’s class, we had to come with 30+ Royal Icing flower bases. Oh, was my hand sore!
Here is who was watching while I worked . . .
Wilton Royal Icing Recipe
4 cups of icing sugar
3 tablespoons of meringue powder
5-6 tablespoons of room temperature water
Beat all ingredients until icing forms peaks (7-10 minutes at low speed with a heavy-duty mixer, 10-12 minutes at high speed with a hand-held mixer).
NOTE: Keep all utensils completely grease-free for proper icing consistency.
* For stiffer icing, use 1 tablespoon less water.
For the class this week, we will be building the Wilton Rose onto these bases. Stay tuned 🙂
