[@mariasingh3424]

This is so simple and suitable for hot climate. Thank u. No cream of tartar. Nice

[@clarissadiego2781]

Finally! A tutorial I can relate to 😂 “not all of it, but most of it.” and you’re beautiful.

[@SuziBelmont]

Great to hear xxx

[@imjadey3551]

How many cups of powdered sugar per egg?

[@pewdie3.1415]

its midnight and i want a frosted cupcake, soo i dont have any materials so will normal powdered sugar do the trick

[@SuziBelmont]

For royal icing you would need icing sugar...that is powdered sugar rather than granulated

[@saarahkhan5051]

pewdie 3.14159265358 an easy trick is to powderise normal sugar by blending it with a blender or something of the sort

[@yacinediagne6702]

Yeah and add corn starch or regular flour

[@lisahouk7776]

same thing as icing sugar..just a different name

[@explosionhead6911]

@@SuziBelmont thanks i was trying to figure out what that box of icing was specifically called :)

[@sharmgiri]

I did this for father’s day and it was fabulous. Thank you so much!!

[@Islampromy]

Awesome recipe .. saved my Eid day cake 🎂

[@parismykitty]

Super easy and fast!! Thank you so much!! (the only thing, was I had to guess about how much icing sugar was used but that isn't hard!)

[@deborahoseitwum3779]

OMG! This worked perfectly for me! I like its ability to stand in a heat prone area . However is there any thing I can do in other to get a much pleasant scent. Don't like that raw egg scent. Tastes great though

[@SuziBelmont]

You can add a tiny bit of vanilla or lemon to flavour it ;) Not much though as it acts like water and changes the consistency. Suzi x

[@deniceherman3301]

How do you get your royal icing to turn out shiny on the cookie?, any suggestions?

[@toutkoek4550]

Love it! Just subscribed iT! Can i pipe with this royal icing flowers on a fondant wedding cake? And a other question: i want to have iT gold, Should i paint iT or add golden powder to the mixture?

[@UniqueRita]

This is just the best tutorial I have seen so far

[@SuziBelmont]

Fabulous - thank you!

[@auwliyapopal1924]

im making macarons but do i need icing or frosting to make those

[@luckyerry]

Thank you so so much, I want to start a side baking business, and I have been wondering how royal icing is made after watching this video I feel great.

[@zuwainamoosa7379]

Can we add food color??

[@SuziBelmont]

Hi here Zuwaina. Suzi here from Pretty Witty Cakes. Yes you can but not liquid ones. Use the paste colours else the consistency will be too affected. ANd you need only the tinies amount :)

[@Thedustbusterx]

This was so useful for my anniversary cake thank you so much!!!

[@SuziBelmont]

Great! Happy Anniversary!

[@melissadilbar732]

@pretty witty cakes thank you so much for this. I’m giessing I can also pasteurize the eggs before making this and add lemon juice just to cut that eggy smell that bugs me?

[@SuziBelmont]

Lemon juice will help if you don't like the flavour or vanilla or rose water or any flavouring :)

[@shaniaswonderland5249]

Can I use butter? Instead of egg Whites?

[@marcradoc2981]

She is really funny! That recipe is great

[@SuziBelmont]

Its a great recipe - really easy to work with. We use it a lot in the cake school here at Pretty Witty Cakes x

[@paramndbharrat2782]

Hi Mama how much egg did you use did u use the bear egg whites or the hold egg

[@maritesmalik1136]

[@SuziBelmont]

Hi Calista. Suzi from Pretty Witty here. You can indeed

[@caitlinmurrin4752]

Great video, but one question, since it's raw egg, couldn't you get sick from it if it's icing that you're going to eat?

[@SuziBelmont]

Please see prior answers to the same question :)

[@marytvshowcakedecorating]

Thanks for sharing please How many days can it last on a cake?

[@SuziBelmont]

It lasts a long time due to the high sugar content

[@yumyumPriyaskitchen]

Is this egg tangling taste wont come after go in throat. How is the taste will be? Like butter cream or Different?

[@SuziBelmont]

Tastes like sugar

[@anamfatma432]

Is this frosting good in taste ??Because we using a eggwhite which could be raw in taste

[@SuziBelmont]

People have liked for a long time. if you worry about the taste you can add flavour like vanilla :)

[@joslindsouza9942]

I really like it & it's very very much easier than others thank you so much 😊

[@senioritaeliana1930]

Hello. This icing egg is quickly to melt? I just really wondered if this is work for party??

[@SuziBelmont]

Hello - no it sets hard with a crack (soft crack). You can put on the outside of cakes (it isn't good on the inside)

[@theamarine1091]

Can I use it for piping? Or just like u said add in some water then use it for piping,i mean for the layer of the cake

[@SuziBelmont]

Yes it is most commonly used for piping decorations or covering a cake. It is not used inside cakes

[@kollywealthbee6022]

Hello ma'am can I use butter icing for frosting and royal icing to decorate it, can the two give a nice result?

[@SuziBelmont]

YOu mean inside? Yes you can for buttercream.

[@eyeball1887]

this actually worked ! I put it on some sugar cookies I made and they are good!

[@SuziBelmont]

Great to hear

[@1milebehind]

Will royal icing be safe to eat? Because it has egg white which im a bit worried if i might sick after it

[@SuziBelmont]

See above comment replies :)

[@lya0portia]

Is icing sugar the same as powdered/baking sugar? Sorry for the silly question, but I'm very new to baking and all that jazz

[@SuziBelmont]

Thats ok - all questions welcome :) Yes icing sugar is powdered sugar (not granulated). Looks a bit like a soft flour.

[@jannattajrin8696]

Is it good to use row egg white ?

[@SuziBelmont]

yes as long we using good eggs purchased from a supermarket :) If you prefer not to you can make royal icing in other ways including egg white powder :)

[@ishratsaba2014]

In ur icing how many icing sugar will go in it

[@rachelhughes8487]

ishrat saba 500 grams is what she said, but as an American I'm familiar with volume rather than weight. it looked like about two cups to me?

[@SuziBelmont]

I think this may help - a table we did a few years ago. www.prettywittycakes.co.uk/weight-conversion-chart I think that is 4 usa cups?

[@kaylahall1219]

I had no idea it was sooooo easy! I'm gonna make some right now!;

[@SuziBelmont]

Yes one of the easiest and quickest ones : )

[@ramya4318]

Can we use powdered instead of icing sugar

[@SuziBelmont]

Its the same thing :) Icing sugar = confectioners sugar = powdered sugar :)

[@ultimatekitchen4797]

Can we use one or two drops of liquid food color

[@cjmendoza9138]

May i ask if i don't have a mixer can i use a wooden spoon for mixing it

[@SuziBelmont]

Yes mix well and use those muscles

[@lucyhartnett7330]

So it's 500gm per egg white? How much to cover a Christmas cake?

[@AcousticGuitarGuy-gx7zh]

Can you keep adding sugar until you reach a fondant?So can you make fondant out of this?Pls response.

[@SuziBelmont]

No this is different to fondant. You can cover a cake in it but it is not the same as fondant and it dries hard - it is used in royal wedding cakes.

[@mitaliyellurkar5892]

can we use a mixer to beat the egg white and sugar mix

[@SuziBelmont]

yes you can

[@ogandogand1575]

Thank you u ur video is very clear and ur background is nice

[@SuziBelmont]

Hi there Ogand. Suzi here from Pretty Witty Cakes. Thank you. I work really hard to style the videos so really nice to get such nice feedback about one of my tutors here :)

[@eddyed4015]

A big difference in taste and texture

[@jawahirmir9277]

Plz tell me if we dont have an electric blender vot can we use??? Plzzz reply fast... I hve to make a pineapple cake on my sisters birthday... Plzzz its emergency...

[@SuziBelmont]

By hand if you need to :)

[@maryamhaq4117]

what volume of sugar u used? 500g is kinda confusing I apologize

[@SuziBelmont]

it is icing sugar (confectioners sugar in the usa). You might find these tables useful that I made to stick on the fridge: www.prettywittycakes.co.uk/weight-conversion-chart and this more pretty one www.prettywittycakes.co.uk/blog/conversion-charts 500 grams is about 2.5 US cups if that helps?

[@nishumd8037]

Can We store it for one day?

[@SuziBelmont]

Yes you can as long as cool

[@purplemoonskz]

Can we use a powdered sugar made at home

[@SuziBelmont]

I have never tried but powdered sugar is what you need not granulated

[@vincemcdonie]

Hi i have no icing sugar? It's ok to use sugar just for my icing?

[@SuziBelmont]

This wont work I am afraid we normal sugar. You need confectioners or powder sugar

[@azonghoelvira-bei6423]

I'm going to try that out today and give you feedback.

[@markkossiefi5053]

bless you I loved every second of it ,thank you !

[@ileshakistasamy7004]

What can we use insted of egg white to make the icing

[@SuziBelmont]

In this recipe nothing as the egg white is key but there are other ways to make royal icing using meringue powder and so on. Take a look at www.prettywittyacademy.com as that is where we have a full school x

[@wiiwidad7805]

helenevienna is it better with 500g because I want to try it too and it's my first time

[@zoharabanu7473]

Instead icing sugar can we use grinded sugar

[@SuziBelmont]

Hello - you can use any kind of confectioners sugar - ie the soft sugar. Granualted grainy sugar won't work. It needs to be powdered

[@farahnaz474]

Can I freeze this icing? If I can how long can freeze I?

[@SuziBelmont]
