Works really well on petit fours! I used a little bit more water, and the resulting icing was extremely easy to handle.

Although mentioned in the written directions, it sure would've been nice to know 1/2 cup water was needed in this recipe from the get-go!!

Thanks for the advice for eliminating bubbles. This recipe did not taste good. It was too sweet even for my 3 kids. The almond flavor was overpowering.

One trick to eliminate bubbles in royal icing is to thin it to desired consistency, then cover the bowl with a wet towel and let it sit for about 15 min. As it sits, bubbles rise to the top, after the 15 min stir it gently to release the bubbles. Stir it gently so as not to create more bubbles. I'm not sure if this technique would work for this icing, but, it might be worth a try. Also, you may have stirred too vigorously which would have caused more bubbles.
