Bad cook. Good food.

I started this blog after getting addicted to food blogs and making a good vegan cupcake from scratch. I'm not a good cook, but sometimes I get lucky and I love to eat good, fatty, sugary food. I enjoy beautiful pictures of food, but I'm keeping it simple and taking photos with my crappy iphone camera. Do not have any high expectations of proper grammar, sexy pictures or consistent font. This blog is thrown together in secs and recently is really all about biking.

NONVEGAN ICING

Royal Icing

2 large egg whites

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

3 cups (330 grams) confectioners (powdered or icing) sugar, sifted

½ red

½ blue

In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the egg whites with the lemon juice.

Add the sifted powdered sugar and beat on low speed until combined and smooth.

The icing needs to be used immediately or transferred to an airtight container as royal icing hardens when exposed to air.

Cover with plastic wrap when not in use.
