Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality meringue powder for the best results.
  • Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before whipping them.
  • Whip the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing the speed as the whites get foamy.
  • Continue whipping the egg whites until they are stiff and glossy and form peaks that hold their shape.
  • Add the sugar gradually, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to whip the egg whites.
  • Once all of the sugar has been added, continue whipping the egg whites for a few more minutes, until they are very stiff and glossy.
  • Pipe the meringue mixture onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, using a pastry bag fitted with a star tip.
  • Bake the meringues in a preheated oven at 200°F for 1 hour, or until they are dry and crisp.
  • Let the meringues cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
