Royal Icing Cakes

• 
  Royal Icing :- This is wonderful icing to work with.I like it very much as we can make flowers and stuff in before hand and use them later, we can save them up to 2 weeks..........................................isn't it coooooooooool.
  

It is little hard to make this icing compared to other types of icing.

for making 3 cups of royal icing we need

3 tabs. of meringue powder(you can even substitute it with egg whites)
1lb. of confectioners' sugar.
5-6 tbs. of luke warm water.
Place confectioners sugar and meringue powder in a bowl,mix at low speed with a hand mixer until blended. Add water and mix for 8 min.on low speed until the icing loses its sheer(shining).to prevent drying always cover it with a tight lid or damp cloth. You can store the icing in an airtight container for 2 weeks.

I have made these flowers and birds with royal icing in before and when they are dried for 3 days, I have placed them on the cake.

My friends told that I'm soooooooo

crazy as I made this two tire cake with 108 royal icing roses....................believe me it's really the hardest cake that I have made.........................but my hard work paid off............as it was one of the best cakes in my class.

This is my best and favorite cake

as it came out soooooo cute and

I have made nearly 10 types of

flowers for this basket cake.........

isn't it cute????
