Colonnade Icing
Ingredients
4 1/2 cups Sugar
1 cup Water
6 tablespoons Light corn syrup
6 Egg whites, beaten stiff
cup Confectioner's sugar
Preparation
1
Cook 4-1/2 cups sugar, water and corn syrup to soft-ball stage (238 degrees on candy thermometer). Add slowly to egg whites, beating thoroughly until consistency of cream. Add confectioner's sugar. This is a soft-on-the-inside and crusty-on-the-outside icing that never fails.
