- 1 pound confectioner’s sugar
- 3 tablespoons meringue powder
- 5-6 tablespoons warm water
- Optional: food coloring (gel colorings offer the most vibrant hues)
To pipe the icing: I like to pipe the icing from a zip-top bag. Carefully snip a small corner off the bag and gently squeeze like a toothpaste tube. Better to start with a very small hole, as you can always make it bigger if need be.
