So confused icon_confused.gif

You would be much better off using Wilton's ColorFlo mix.....or buy "Just Whites' from the grocery store.
Meringue powder contains starches, sugars and many other ingredients that could throw that recipe off icon_sad.gif

Sorry off topic...
I just made a batch of royal icing for cookies I needed for tomorrow but now I won't need them til next week. How long will the meringue powder be able to sit, will it go bad? Should I refridgerate?
So sorry to butt in but I saw Meringue powder in the heading and was hoping someone could help icon_smile.gif
