Glossy Royal Icing

Description

I received this recipe from a professional baker. I prefer to use this instead of a regular royal icing recipe with egg whites. It hardens nicely and is glossy rather than matte like regular royal icing. Use almond, orange, or lemon extract, whatever you prefer.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup warm water
  • 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon almond extract
  • 3 cups confectioners’ sugar, or more as needed

Instructions

  1. Stir warm water
  2. corn syrup
  3. and almond extract together in a small bowl until corn syrup and extract have dissolved. Place confectioners’ sugar into a separate bowl and add liquid ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until royal icing is smooth. Store in a lidded container for up to a week; stir thoroughly before using.
