1. Mix the meringue powder and 6 tbsp of water together in a bowl.

2. Add 4 cups (1lb.) of powdered sugar to a standing mixer.  Then pour in the meringue mixture in and run with a paddle attachment until combined on low speed.

3. Then add in the vanilla extract and beat on a speed of 4 for 5 mins until thick.  Store in an airtight container.  This is the perfect consistency for making royal icing flowers.

4. Using a spray bottle add water a little at a time until you have a nice consistency for making borders for cookies.  Then add more water for consistency for flooding your cookies.
