[@jengonzalez3649]

I made these and they were amazing!! So true about the color getting lighter as you pipe. I did use a tip to make some stars and no tip for the kisses and it worked out!

[@MsKScreations]

Beautiful results! You made it look so fun and easy. Thank you. Fun to watch.

[@lisanailpower]

Omg such a great video lots of inspiration thank you sooooo much 💝

[@mostlymozart6288]

Swiss Meringue is pretty much my "for sure go to" meringue. I've made macarons many times and have used Italian that works most of the time, seldom use French. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="121">2:1</a> for sugar to egg whites is perfect for me, and I throw in a stabilizer in after it starts to thicken up. Great tips on painting the bags, as it can get a bit messy. You always have such a good spirit and I alway enjoy your posts. Thank you so much for your time and expertise.

[@janupanicker1839]

Like the way u tell the details and ideas. And lovely that u show few techniques like baking paper, mat coz not all will have all the equipments. The baking mat is quiet expensive in my country. Compare to silicone or parchment paper. I love and regret only now I Found u coincidently as I was looking how to make perfect choc drip.

[@jessgarcia2714]

You read my mind!!!!! I’ve been wanting to try this but never seen a video until now ❤️

[@bethroundell8424]

We make forgotten cookies. Meringues. Prep in evening. Low temp oven, leave all night to dry. Made like you do but fold in choc chips at the end.

You're absolutely sensational! Everything seems 10 times easier. I've watched how to make Swiss meringues dozens of times and this is the first time someone has actually stressed the portions of egg whites and sugar. So simple, it's engrained in my head! Thanks so much for your tutorial 😊

Hi Georgia.. Thanks for the tutorial.. I am planning to make these for cake decoration.. Can I make it ahead of time? How can I store it?

[@sweetladhidh1636]

Hi Georgia! I am in love with your vidéos ! Such a love!y work 😍 please can you tell me what you usually do with the left over egg yolks thanks a lot

[@GeorgiasCakes]

I hate to admit but I do throw away a lot of egg yolks - you can make custard, lemon curd, mayonnaise, creme patisserie with them

[@annajheselton3382]

A pound cake is great as well.

[@beatrizlulu4827]

Should I let the mixture cool down before whisking?

[@michelleslifeonrepeat]

How would you store these? We get a fair amount of humidity. Do you store in glass sealed containers inside refrigerator or on the counter?

[@darraghlinehan8295]

Can I use a shallow cupcake tin for circles?

[@oanaschipp9862]

Can't wait to try these! Before mixing does it have to reach room temperature? Also, do I let them sit in the oven to cool with the oven door slightly open or do I just them them out of the oven hot? Can I use essence and extracts? Thank you ❤️

[@susiedias7071]

The paper straws can go in the oven ? Does these has to be baked ?

[@jehangadallah172]

Hi can I ask what make is your infra red thermometer

[@hinaakbar2526]

What's the best way to store them please of making a few days ahead? And also if adding on cake is it ok to put cake in fridge?

[@GeorgiasCakes]

In an airtight container is best :) YEs they will be fie adding to the cake in advance as long as there is little moisture in your fridge

[@andreadzianova745]

Hi Georgia, great tutorial! I'd like to ask how long does these things last once done? Can I prepare it upfront and then use it few weeks later or is it more question of days than weeks?

[@milazal2292]

Put it into plastic box and they can last 2 weeks

[@KiaraJones1967]

will it make a big different if you forget the salt ?

[@lushalamar8940]

How long can you store the meringues for?

[@zainkg1206]

روعه❤😍 لو فيه ترجمه عربي

[@wendyzappone7442]

How long will egg whites last in the refrigerator? In other words, if you used the egg yolks and saved the egg whites, how long do they last while refrigerated.

[@conchitavaldemont6599]

What is a good temperature to realize the mix of sugar and white eggs is ready for the stand mixer? Thank you

[@sumaiyasiraj217]

They won't get too hot. About 40 degrees. Start whisking as soon as the sugar has dissolved or your eggs will scramble

[@itsmelissaomg]

How do I add sprinkles and stuff to these? Can I do it before baking or will the sprinkles burn?

[@RegisPappa]

Hi Georgia! Where did you buy the magnets? I have mine but unfortunately lost some and now i don’t know where to find them

Hello ma'am....it is an useful video.But I have a question....Should my meringue freezed before baking?..

[@shabz09]

So after baking dem, do u switch off the oven and keep it in the closed oven?? Hw do u store them??

[@GeorgiasCakes]

You can do! I store them in an air tight container

[@loveablecrotchetandknittin3819]

Anything we can use for eggless

[@jessicadesira1450]

Hi Georgia. Can you over-beat the meringue if you mix it too long in the stand-mixer?

[@GeorgiasCakes]

I've never experienced it but wouldn't beat it longer than 10 minutes :)

[@elviraelezovic6427]

I am sorry, I want to ask about those sticks. What kind of it is, paper ones ? Can it burn down 😅

[@_.shxy._x4639]

Can you make a buttercream recipe

[@TinaGiaccotto]

And the paper straws don’t burn in the oven?😮 love your channel💛

[@GeorgiasCakes]

No because the oven is so low!

[@baekaisoo2627]

Wouldn't the paper straws burn in the oven ? Love how detailed the video is!! Thank you this was so helpful

[@picklegirl007]

Not at all 😊 I bake sugar cookies on paper straws at 350* in the oven and they don’t burn 😊

[@GeorgiasCakes]

No they don't burn :)

[@janupanicker1839]

150 gm egg whites - how many eggs are that if size Large ? Or grade A?

[@lilianodachionuh1223]

Are the ingredients just sugar and egg whites?

[@CCoburn3]

The Meringue Girls put the sugar in the oven and heat it. Then they don't have to mess with double boilers. You might want to try that.

[@GeorgiasCakes]

I’ve tried that method before - the problem is that the sugar can easily catch and caramelise in the oven and also the oven has to reduce in temperature in time for the meringue. I find the double boiler method a much safer option! 💕

[@aishajaved5499]

Hi can u plz tell me how long have to baked u said 1hr on temperature 100 is this time too long? or jus okay can u tell me

[@noelorraine]

Hello Georgia what type of sugar are u using??

[@anitadhm_]

[@carolinaerre6759]

Hi Chef, I have a question, how you keep the baked merengue? And how long you can keep it before using? Thanks in advance.

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Keep them in an airtight container - they're good for about a week!

[@Comptonisa]

dont use fridge

Great tutorial as always. Is there any benefit of using Swiss meringue over french meringue for this? Xx

[@GeorgiasCakes]

french meringue doesn't have a glossy appearance - this is easier to pipe!

[@amytaylor6889]

@@GeorgiasCakes Thank you! Xx

[@kimberlycee4871]

I have a question. I tried your Swiss merengue and I love it, however, I find that after a while in the piping bag that when I pipe it, it loses its shape quickly and looks melted. Should I refrigerate it or did it need to be re-whipped?

[@punkynoodle9370]

Same with me!! Why is that?

[@MiMiOrt]

Can I use powdered sugar instead?

[@Comptonisa]

i use both, half normal and half powdered

Do you have a video making macarons?

Love all your receipes but pls let me the alternative of egg pls

[@bernicec521]

Will this meringue cookie turn mushy after sitting in the refrigerator?

[@3kylajsmith]

Should not put them in the fridge, it is to damp in the fridge. Room temperature in a airtight container is best.

[@alisongibson5557]

Just made these and I'm so pleased with how they turned out, I made Christmas tree pops and some kisses, some have cracked do you have any idea why please? xx

[@yinghe6550]

Thanks for your video, I tried but my meringue just cracked, I don’t know 🤷🏻‍♀️ Are there any tips for cracking meringue? Thanks

[@GeorgiasCakes]

It's usually because the sugar wasn't dissolved in the meringue or it could also be due to oven and humidity...

How do you stop them from going sticky once they have been baked. I made some but they went sticky after leaving them for 40 mins on the kitchen counter 😭

[@michelleslifeonrepeat]

I was asking about humidity and leaving them out. I think they would get sticky.

[@lilianodachionuh1223]

The Ingredients are just sugar and egg whites?

[@GrammaPatriot]

Why do some people cook the whites and some ppl dont? Im confused.

[@janedoe805]

Question please; I see you’re using a Smeg Stand-mixer, l have seen them however, I’m not too familiar with the brand. I have an 7 Quart KitchenAid, how many quarts is the bowl on your Smeg Stand-mixer? I prefer to make most recipes in huge quantities because, l have 17 Grandchildren. (15 Boys and 2 Girly-Girls!) I’m asking because, I had a marshmallow mishap last month, there was Marshmallow liquid goo everywhere! I only stepped away for a minute because, l heard a crashing noise and two of my grandkids crying. (Not to worry no one was injured only my lamp!) Thank you 😊

[@brigittekomara9036]

Does anyone know if you can add different flavors to meringue and how to add it?

[@GeorgiasCakes]

Best way to flavour is with powders - for example freeze dried raspberries, strawberries etc. :)

Why is this simple this soooo difficult for me..... I did 2 batches and it just dint whip up.... All the sugar melted yet no.... Where m I going wrong?

[@jovannaluna4192]

I tried to do this! And I can’t find my mistake, as soon as I was doing them they became flat and runny , is there any advice you can give me?

[@sophiamendiola-flores7084]

This is a common mistake people make while making meringue (Trust me, I’ve been there). In the video, she added in the sugar all at once into the mixing bowl. What you’re supposed to do is whisk the egg whites until they are foamy, and that’s when you can start GRADUALLY adding in the sugar. If you add in the sugar too early, then your meringue will be runny. People usually add in the sugar thrice at a time, but I don’t think you have too. Just make sure to gradually add in the sugar. Also, DON’T over mix the egg whites!!! This is very important. If you over mix the egg whites, then your meringue will be runny and not form. Make sure that you have stiff peaks. That’s when you can start piping your meringues. Hope this helps :)

[@jovannaluna4192]

@@sophiamendiola-flores7084 thank you ! It does i appreciate it I did exactly like the video and I did not wait until the egg was foam ! I will sure do that next time!

[@sophiamendiola-flores7084]

You’re welcome. I recommend to watch a video first on how to make the meringue when they add in the sugar gradually so that you what it looks like before you add in the sugar.

When the meringue is so thick that doesn't move

[@NataliaLassance]

At what temperature will the sugar dissolve in the egg whites, please? You said you monitor the temperature, but you didn't mention what temperature it is, I tried to zoom it and it looked like fifty-something 👀
