When I added the sugar syrup it turned into a milky soup. It helped when I placed the egg whites in a plastic container and lowered them into some warm water. Of course without any water getting in the egg whites. You can also try and add a little sugar to the egg whites when they starts to foam. I have tried this a few times.

I refuse to give up in this recipe though! I will probably have to separate the egg whites myself this time, then I could just make custard! Please keep making more wonderful things. I have so much to learn about baking and decorating and you have been such a tremendous help! THANKS LOUISE!!!

May I ask, how early can I make the cream cheese frosting a head of time, and do i have to keep it in the refrigerator? and do you know how long I could leave the cupcakes up at room temp?

I don't find it that sweet. You could also try and make a cream cheese frosting? I really like the one from Glorious Treats http://glorioustreats.blogspot.com/2010/02/cream-cheese-frosting-recipe.html Have you tried the Italian butter cream? I don’t find it that sweet.

I'm a fan of whipped icing just because I think it's less sweet. I want to make a bunch of cupcakes for a party, but want to make them ahead of time, but whipped icing won't be great for that, I think. I was wondering, how do you make buttercream that's not too sweet? I would love to hear your opinion. Hi, Your cupcakes look amazing! I’m a fan of whipped icing just because I think it’s less sweet.

You would have to make a basic butter cream then. You cannot make this without the meringue. You would have to make a basic butter cream then.

At first you should use the whisk for the egg whites. It can get soft if it's very hot where you live. I must say that I honestly don’t know. At first you should use the whisk for the egg whites.
