I made it last week for my son's classroom Christmas party. It wasn't sour. It tasted way better than Wilton's royal icing recipe. Wilton's always had a bad after taste to me and antonia's didn't.


Hope that helps, ~Denise

I made it also and I didn't taste anything sour. It could have been your meringue powder had a funny taste maybe. It just tastes super sweet to me.

HTH,

Make sure you dissolve the meringue powder completely, and maybe cut back on the cream of tartar. That is the only thing that could make it sour. How old is your cream of tartar?

Hi!

I LOVE Antonia's icing, its very easy to use, but I do cut back on the Cream of Tartar. I use about half of what she recommends. I think that it's there to stabilise the icing and the colour you add to it.

Hope that helps!
