Does anyone know if you can put Meringue Powder in any recipe? I usually do everything buttercream because I can crust it and make it smooth, but was looking to do a cream cheese frosting and usually that won't crust and stiffen without Meringue Powder added.
Yes, meringue powder can be used in buttercream, decorator icing, cream cheese icing and royal icings that I know of. I've used meringue powder in all of the above. Hope that helps! 
Try using the Crusting Cream Cheese icing recipe from this site. Very yummy and crusts fine without meringue powder.
Look in my photos at the butterfly--used it to ice that cake and used the Melvira Method to smooth the sides out--worked great!
