Best 5 Elvias Boiled Frosting Recipes

BOILED FROSTING

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Put the egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer .
• In a saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup, and water. Bring the sugar mixture to a boil, stirring it only until the sugar is completely dissolved.
• Boil the syrup rapidly, without stirring, until it reaches the soft-ball stage : A small amount of the syrup should form a soft ball when dropped in cold water or spin a long thread when dropped from the tip of a spoon (You can also use a cooking thermometer; it should read about 240 F.)
• Slowly pour the syrup in a fine stream over the egg whites while beating them constantly.
• Add the vanilla extract.
• Continue beating the mixture for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the frosting is cool and the right consistency to spread easily. If the frosting becomes too stiff for the beater, use a wooden spoon to mix.
• Use to frost your cake and enjoy.

BOILED ICING

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan bring corn syrup, sugar and water to a boil and remove from heat. With an electric mixer (preferably stationary) whip the eggs whites with a pinch of salt until stiff and glossy but not dry. Slowly, as you are beating the whites, pour the hot syrup and continue to beat constantly until frosting is light and fluffy and holds soft peaks; fold in vanilla.

FLUFFY BOILED ICING

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan combine sugar, water and cream of tartar. Slowly bring mixture to a boil, stirring sides of the saucepan with a brush dipped in water to remove any sugar crystals. Cover and boil for about 3 minutes or until a candy thermometer registers 245 degrees.
• Beat egg whites with pinch of salt until glossy and peaked. Slowly pour in syrup as you continue to beat the whites. Beat until cool and frosting is soft and fluffy. Fold in vanilla.

FLUFFY BOILED ICING

Steps:

• Combine sugar, water, corn syrup, and salt in a saucepan; stir until well blended. Boil slowly without stirring until mixture will spin a long thread when a little is dropped from a spoon (hold the spoon high above saucepan), or reaches 238 - 242 degrees F (114 - 117 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, beat egg whites with a mixer until they are stiff, but still moist. Pour hot syrup slowly over egg whites while beating. Continue until mixture is very fluffy, and will hold its shape. Add vanilla, and beat until blended. If icing does not seem stiff enough, beat in 2 or 3 tablespoons confectioners sugar 1 tablespoon at a time until stiff enough to hold its shape. Spread on cake.
