It sounds like you have used too much water to thin down the icing. Only add drops of water at a time. If you cannot get pasteurized whites where you are? Then make it using Wilton's meringue powder. You can use this recipe for it then: Antonia's Royal Icing for cookies (from CakeCentral). In a steel mixing bowl add 5 tbsp Meringue. Add 3/4 cup water and mix vigouously with a small wire whisk until frothy. Add 1 tsp Cream of Tartar and mix again vigourously with small wire whisk. Add in 1 kg (7-8 cups confectioners sugar) all at once Attach whisk attachment to mixer and blend everything on lowest mix setting for 10 minutes. Add any flavoring to taste. keeps in a sealed container for up to 5 weeks!! To make the icing thinner, just add a little water at a time and mix until the icing smooth into itself after 10 seconds.

I have 2 questions. How long will the icing last? Since it has raw eggs I'm never sure if it has gone bad. Secondly, last time I made this icing I used water to make it into flooding consistency. The icing looked perfect soon after it was done, but once it dried it looked parched and ugly. Hope you have some answers for me.. Thanks a lot. Hi,
