I received this royal icing recipe with corn syrup from a professional baker. I prefer to use this instead of a regular royal icing recipe with egg whites. It hardens nicely and is glossy rather than matte, like regular royal icing.

Ingredients

  • 0.25 cups warm water
  • 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
  • 0.25 teaspoons almond extract
  • 3 cups confectioners' sugar , or more as needed

Instructions

  1. 1

    Stir together warm water, corn syrup, and almond extract in a small bowl until corn syrup and extract have dissolved.

  2. 2

    Place confectioners' sugar into a large bowl and pour in corn syrup mixture. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until royal icing is smooth. Store in a lidded container for up to a week; stir thoroughly before using.
