Last week, I wanted to bake something simple and by simple I mean, something very easy, with a few ingredients. At the same time, I also wanted it to be related to the festive season of Xmas. Its a season of joy, happiness and also hopes, because you are ready to welcome the new year and eagerly waiting to know what's in store for you.
At the end of all these thoughts, I was able to find one such item, which is very simple and at the same time very much apt for the season. Yes meringues….they actually look like snowballs :), so by making it I will get a snowy feeling here in Bahrain also :)
You need the following to make this.
Have you tried these today?

Hi Maria :)
Check this picture out.. Â yes its Meringue roses :) Â
I could not stop myself from trying out the new rose petal icing tip I picked up yesterday and since the batter was kind of the icing texture I decided to give it a try.. It’s my first try with making roses so ya not really great but I was happy to try it out. Â The Meringue batter was much softer than the usual butter cream frosting so yes I had to make the roses really fast cause it could go flat. Â
One thing i noticed was that the oven temperature 140 C was a bit high and I had to switch the oven off at around 20-25min cause I could see it browning already.  So next time I will try to reduce the temperature after I keep  them in the oven.. so the initial high temperature will give it the crispy crust and the lowering the temperature will let them cook inside.
Thanks again for the recipes :)
