I followed your recipe last weekend and for the very first time in my life the meringue roses that I made turned out PERFECT I’m blown away at how good they turned out. I made white, pink and peach coloured roses. The only problem that I had was the coloured ones had a slight bitter taste - I’m guessing it was the colouring. How can I avoid this. Also when should I put in any flavouring to the meringue. I’m thinking vanilla for white, strawberry or raspberry for rose and orange or peach for peach coloured meringues. Thank you

[@thesecretlifeofbuns4336]

Just add more sugar?

[@louisaleroux3484]

[@susangilbertson1002]

Hi, these meringues look fab. Thankyou for sharing. Could flavouring be added, or would this make the meringue too sticky?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Yes, absolutely! A small amount won't affect the consistency

[@BritishGirlBakes]

How exciting! Good luck! I used an iphone 12 for this video :)

[@loriseabrook1906]

Lovely! Is there a way to do the same shape on the other side of the rosette so it won’t look flat on one side but look like a rose all around the straw? Or is there a way to make the rose you did on the royal wedding cake and bake it like that? I wanted to try to make a meringue bouquet! Do you have a video for that? Ty

[@BritishGirlBakes]

You could make two hearts and attach the flat sides together using a bit of buttercream as glue and that way you'd having defined piping on both sides :)

[@odetedasilva1322]

The Meringues are Lovely How long are they baked. At what temperature

[@saraparker184]

i am love 🥰!!!!

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Yay!

[@menoshfarouk9219]

Thanks first l want to know this stiks will melt if we put it in the oven

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Mine don't and I've tried several brands. The low baking temperature shouldn't burn or discolour the sticks

[@virginiaking4063]

Could you add cream or tartar to stabilize the meringue?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Absolutely! I don't bother because I find that they hold their shape perfectly without it, but if you find that the texture of the piping tips isn't holding then cream of tartar would be useful

[@jennifernunez1443]

Can you add flavoring?

[@soumayabeddey266]

Est ce que votre four est ventilé svp?

[@CCoburn3]

Don't mix the coloring into the meringue if you want really intense colors. Instead, paint the inside of the piping bags. Then the color is only on the outside of the meringue, and it is very intense. This is a tip the Meringue Girls gave.

[@hennasworld436]

Can i use butter paper instead of the sheet which u kept below that

[@BritishGirlBakes]

If it's heatproof so can be baked and if it's non-stick then yes!

[@faduatorres1198]

Beautiful! Where do you bought your sprinkles? Tks!

@@BritishGirlBakes thank you 😊

[@rubyc.4311]

These are cute ideas! Thanks for sharing. How do I add these along with other baked goods in a treat box without sweating or getting soft?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

They need to be in an airtight container. You could try wrapping the pops in cellophane and tying a ribbon around the base, with the straw sticking out the bottom

[@jennajenson6909]

I’ve just got a kitchen aid when making this recipe what is the number on high speed you mix this recipe on ?

[@Brandi_the_Baker]

Does anyone know if you can make these ahead and freeze them? I have two parties a month apart and was considering making all decorations for the two cakes on the same day. Just don’t know if meringues do well freezing and then defrosting.

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Yes! You can freeze meringues after baking them. Just put them in an airtight container like a tupperware. If you have several, it's best to separate them with a layer of parchment paper or baking paper to make sure they don't stick to each other. Good luck!

[@sweet16kittycakes29]

hi!how may hours will the meringue will set or dry? dont we need to bake it?

[@thesecretlifeofbuns4336]

Hi. Rewatch the video, please. She says to bake them at 90 degrees celsius or 200 degrees Fahrenheit for 60-90 min.

[@tinderboxbakery6109]

How do keep the pop from getting sticky once it is put on the cake?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

I put the pops on just before serving but if you want to put them on earlier you can keep the cake with the pops in a cake caddy (large tupperware for cakes) or a box with a lid

[@ZOEMACKENZIE_]

Do you have to use sticks?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Nope! You can press the meringues into frosting on the sides or top of the cake while it’s still sticky

[@dhrutisarda5773]

Hey hi.. what can I use instead of eggs?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Aquafaba (liquid from cans of chickpeas/garbanzo beans)

[@aminshaz3930]

What about those ovens which have both ups and downs, separate ups, separate downs(FUNCTION)

[@y4mz0r]

What kind of colouring did you add? Liquid or gel? Does it matter?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

I used gel. Liquid will work but you won't be able to add much without affecting the consistency of the meringue. Gels are much more concentrated so with just a drop you can get really bright colours. Sorry I didn't explain that in the video!

[@lubonamwaale2005]

I just want to say thank you

[@ayeshazeba7935]

Will it not smell cos it's only eggs. Can we add any essence or flavours for it,??

[@BritishGirlBakes]

You can definitely add flavours of you like! The flavour and smell is just of sugar :)

[@melissasanfilippo7614]

Can I use paste colour?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Yes!

[@y4mz0r]

I made these and they turned out perfect. I put the pops and some little kisses on my daughter's birthday cake. I had extra pops and kisses and served them at the party, everyone (kids and adults) loved them. I made them almost a week beforehand and stored them air tight, they were still crunchy on the day, it was a little humid inside though so they started getting a little soggy fairly quickly. Also I tried using pasteurised boxed egg whites and it failed, the egg whites were really runny to begin with and it didn't get to the stiff peak stage, it just got thick. I ended up using real eggs and it worked a treat. I don't know what was wrong with the boxed egg whites.

[@BritishGirlBakes]

I'm so happy they were such a success! I've never tried using boxed egg whites but now I know not to - thank you!

[@neelammunot7249]

Hi🙋 Can we do the same eggless ?

I Love meringue cookies and I am a extreme cake Artist ( sculpting, but Love it all )...I have NEVER seen Anyone make Meringue as a pop and sprinkles to boot...I just think this is brilliant! WOW...How much do you sell these for? I do not know about where you are, but I am North of Seattle and the prices are 3X higher than Before CV maybe more..So taking account the price hikes...What do you suggest? I love your videos..Even Old dogs can learn new tricks.. I am going to start up a cake business after all these years of cake competitions and such but I am thinking mini cakes and pops as a bread and butter income as well as mini cakes..What do you charge say for your cookie dough cake 6 in or 4 in round? That will give me a good idea of where to go with pricing.. Anyone, Please chime in and do tell and share your thoughts...Charge for Meringue pop your cookie dough cake..I appreciate it so much and I could listen to you all day! Thank you is never enough!

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Hi! I don't sell any of my cakes or baking - I just create them for videos for my cake school and KZbin. I used to have a bakery and I did a lot of research on what competitors were charging before setting my own prices, taking into account my costs and what % profit I wanted to make. Hope that helps! And good luck!

[@jeanettemaxwell1508]

Can you just bake them without a straw to place flat on a cake

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Absolutely! And if you've just frosted the cake so the frosting is still sticky, you can press them into the sides and top of the cake and they'll attach easily

[@AhsanKhan-ox2cc]

How many eggs you add

[@BritishGirlBakes]

The recipe with all of the quantities is on www.britishgirlbakes.com

[@cherrymaetraigo]

I love baking,but i don't have tools or material to use.

[@ingridhen619]

Did you say to pipe on a straw ?

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Yes! I use paper straws and they work really well - they're strong enough to support the weight of the meringues and they don't discolour in the oven, maybe because of the low baking temperature

[@AhsanKhan-ox2cc]

Can we eat this meringue pops

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Absolutely!

[@kiranshah2065]

Please show something vegetarion, without eggs

[@BritishGirlBakes]

You can substitute the egg whites with the liquid from a can of chickpeas, called aquafaba :)

[@moukik79]

Do you know why my meringue cookies turned yellow? I baked them at 200F for 60 minutes

[@BritishGirlBakes]

Oh no! You could try baking at a lower temperature for a bit longer - maybe your oven runs slightly hot so 175F for 70 or 80 minutes?
