meringue powder?

Not sure, I'm sure someone else can help to enlighten. But here's a bump as well!

I have an old 1917 cookbook that uses 1 teaspoon baking powder per egg as a replacement.
There are also egg free recipes. Did you want anything in particular?

Here are some egg substitutes:

2 tbsp corn starch = 1 egg
2 tbsp arrowroot flour = 1 egg
2 tbsp potato starch = 1 egg
1 heaping tbsp soy powder + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg
1 tbsp soy milk powder + 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg.
1 banana = 1 egg in cakes

If you're using a boxed cake mix, you can use a can of diet soda instead of the eggs, water, and oil that the box calls for. I add a box of sugar-free pudding, some vanilla, and have a moist, dense (and egg-free) cake. I'm not sure if there are any egg products in a boxed mix, though? The diet soda cake doesn't rise as much as your regular cake, but it's still DELICIOUS! icon_smile.gif
