Posted by Sindhi Crawford (162 days ago)

Im trying to make a small quanity using just one egg white and my kitchen aid just wont do it, is it too little cuz ive its been beating for over ten mins and im not able to get the froth from the egg white to add the sugar to it.

Any suggestions???

I have made royal icing many times and every time I have made it I have added the sugar before beating the egg. I add the sugar, mix it to get it wet so there is no big sugar cloud, then beat it until it forms stiff peaks. It works well every time for me. This may allow the volume to be big enough so the whisk attachment can reach the icing. Good luck...
