Ingredients for Plain Icing No. 1 Recipe
- 1 egg white
- 2 teaspoons cold water
- 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla or 1/2 tablespoon fruit juice
Instructions
- Add confectioner's sugar (powdered sugar) to a small amount of light-colored fruit juice, - pineapple, pear and lemon, or lemon juice and water.
- Stir in enough sifted sugar to form a consistency to spread on cake.
- This icing will not dry out as quickly as boiled icing, and it forms a crust over the surface very readily.
- Use cream or milk, or egg yolk, or both, as wetting, in the place of water or fruit juice.
