Ingredients
  

  • Cups Powdered Sugar
  • Tbsp Meringue Powder
  • ¼ Cup Water
  • ½ tsp Lemon Juice (Optional)
  • Gel Food Coloring

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, add the powdered sugar. Sprinkle the meringue powder over it and give it a quick mix to combine.
  • In a small cup, mix the water and lemon juice. Start by adding 2 tablespoons of this lemon water to the sugar. Turn your mixer on low and begin mixing. Slowly add more liquid, a little at a time, until the icing comes together. I used about 3¼ tablespoons total, but you may need a bit more or less. You’re aiming for a very thick frosting-like consistency.
  • Once your icing is ready, cover the bowl with a damp towel right away to keep it from drying out or forming a crust. Keep it covered while you work.
  • * Please refer to the step by step instructions above for each type of sprinkles or watch the video attached to this recipe card.

Notes

  • Nutrition info is estimated and may vary based on ingredients and portions. For the most accurate details, consider using a nutrition tool or checking our full Nutrition Information Disclaimer.
  • Lemon juice is optional and can be replaced with any extract you want, you can also not add any flavor. I would advise you to use a clear extract, anything with color will slightly tint the icing.
