Royal icing too stiff
Hi
I’m trying to royal ice a wedding cake and I want a flat surface.
I think my icing might be a bit too stiff and I’d like your advice on how to make it softer please.
Recipe is 2 large egg whites, 1lb icing sugar, 2tsp lemon juice and 1 tsp glycerine.
What can I add, and how do I add it please?
Thank you
Les ‘scones’ pour Thé
Hello Lindsey,
I am baking scones as spring is here! I live in France and it's difficult to find clotted cream. Is there any clotted cream recipe you might know of so I could make my own clotted cream? Totally understand if this is not something you can help with but thought I might ask! Thank you, Ed

Mastering Macaroons
Hi Lindsey,
In the recipe for coffee macaroons it asks for ground rice.
Is this the same as rice flour?
Also, which way up should I use the rice paper?
