Clean stand mixer bowl with dish soap and warm water 

 

Dry well

 

Add 3 cups powdered sugar 

 

Add 3 TBSP meringue powder (I use Wiltons)

 

Mix with whisk until combined

 

Add 2 TBSP corn syrup , 1 tsp vanilla and 3 TBSP water

 

Using the paddle attachment and your Mixer Skirt to prevent stand mixer splashes 

Mix on low speed, once water is incorporated add a tablespoon more and continue to mix. 

 

Mix on medium speed for 1-2 minutes. 

 

Using a spray bottle with water, add additional water until your frosting turns white and is stiff peak consistency 

 

Divide and color using Americolor gels and additional water from spray bottle until stiff, line and flood consistencies achieved

 

Once bagged - “helicopter” for 10-15 seconds prior to clipping or knitting bag.
