If you are looking for pretty cake decoration or just some fun girly treat, these pink rainbow meringues are so easy to make but at the same time look so impressive!
I found these when I was looking for a fun cake decoration for the pink ombré cake I made for my friend’s girl’s baptism. The magic is about painting stripes inside your piping bag – and that’s it.
You can also make these using different colors and turn them into a real rainbow. Have fun with it!
Love,

Ingredients
- - 150g egg whites (around 4 eggs)
- - 300g caster sugar
- - 1 pinch salt
- - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
- Step 1 Preheat oven to 100°C (200°F).
- Step 2 Make sure your bowl and your whisk attachments are free of any oil – use a little bit of vinegar on a paper towel and wipe it all to be on the safe side.
- Step 3 Start beating the egg whites on low speed first, then set to the highest speed and beat until soft peaks form.
- Step 4 Gradually add the sugar and beat until all sugar crystals are resolved (it took me around 10 minutes).
- Step 5 For the piping, use a big nozzle and put it into your piping bag.
- Step 6 Use a simple brush with some food coloring paste and “paint” stripes on the walls of your piping bag. Be careful, so the sides of the piping bag don’t collapse before you add the egg mixture to the bag.
- Step 7 Start piping into your bowl until you can see the stripes appearing, and then pipe what I’d call little puffs on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Step 8 Bake for 30-35 minutes and set aside to cool. As soon as they are cool, store them in an airtight container otherwise, they’ll lose their crispiness.
- Step 9 Eat them or decorate your cake (for example this pink ombré cake) … et voila!
