FunCakes Meringue Powder 150g FunCakes

Meringue powder is used to make meringues, pavlova and buttercream. The powder is ready to use, just add a little water, and sugar if you wish.

Tip: always use a clean spoon.

The consistency of the product does not allow royal icing to be made.

Meringue preparation: Preheat the oven to 120°C (100°C for a convection oven). The bowl and electric mixer should be greaseproof. Pour 14 grams of meringue powder with 125 ml of water and 125 grams of fine powdered sugar. Mix at high speed until a white foam forms. Gradually add 250 grams of powdered sugar. Stir until stiff peaks form. Arrange the meringues in a dish covered with baking paper and leave to dry in the oven for about 1h30. Let the meringues cool in the oven.

Pavlova preparation: Preheat the oven to 120°C (100°C for a convection oven). Pour 14 grams of powder, 125 ml of water and 125 grams of fine powdered sugar into a bowl, and mix using an electric mixer. Make sure the bowl and electric mixer are greaseproof. Beat the mixture at high speed until a white foam is obtained and add a little sugar (500 grams). Stir until stiff peaks form. The result is very firm and resistant. Cover the baking sheet with parchment paper and place the mixture on it. Spread lightly by pressing down on the top with the back of the spoon. The meringue should be around 20cm in diameter. Dry it in the oven for about 2½ hours and let it cool in the oven. Beat 250 ml of cream with 2 tablespoons of icing sugar until you obtain a firmer cream. Pour the cream over the pavlova once it has cooled. To give the berries a “frozen” effect, dip them in sugar. Decorate the pavolva with fresh fruit.

Preparation of the American buttercream: Pour 190 grams of crisco, 7 teaspoons (35 grams) of water, 450 grams of icing sugar and 1 tablespoon of meringue powder then mix everything. Add 4 teaspoons of water (40 grams) and mix until you obtain an easy-to-spread cream.
