VEGAN / EGGLESS ROYAL ICING

I found this on the Wilton forums when searching the web for an eggless royal icing substitute. I made a batch this morning and used it to assemble a gingerbread house. The pieces stuck together easily, the icing isn't running, and the roof isn't slipping at all. I'm very pleased! (Note: I'm posting the recipe as I found it, but I had to add an extra tsp of liquid - I used water, total of 3 tsp - as it was very pellet-like at first.)

Tips:

  • For a smooth and lump-free icing, sift the powdered sugar before use.
  • Use a handheld or stand mixer to whip the icing until it reaches stiff peaks. This will help to incorporate air and create a light and fluffy texture.
  • If the icing is too thick, add a small amount of water or plant-based milk until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • If the icing is too thin, add more powdered sugar until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • For a glossy finish, add a small amount of corn syrup or agave nectar to the icing.
  • To color the icing, add a few drops of food coloring or natural food dyes such as beet powder or turmeric.
  • For a crunchy texture, add some chopped nuts, sprinkles, or crushed candy to the icing.
  • If you are using the icing to decorate cookies, let the icing set completely before moving the cookies.

Conclusion:

Vegan eggless royal icing is a versatile and delicious way to decorate cakes, cookies, and other desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your desired taste and texture. With a little creativity, you can use this icing to create beautiful and festive decorations that will impress your friends and family.
