Fluffy Frosting

Separate eggs, discard yolk. Place egg whites in a medium sized mixing bowl, or bowl of stand mixer.

In a small sauce pan over high heat, combine sugar, corn syrup, water, cream of tarter, and salt. Bring to boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. While mixing, carefully pour the sugar syrup into the mixing bowl in a very small stream.

It’s best if the syrup can hit the side of the bowl and run down into the eggs. Let mix until the frosting turns glossy and begins to mound in the bowl. It should be able to form a peak with a cute little loop at the tip.

This is enough to frost a 9″ two layer cake. Spread thickly over the cake, using small circular motions. Twist a spatula or spoon on the frosting and pull up, forming peaks. Make it messy to show off the beautiful glossy peaks and valleys in the frosting.
