Ingredients
 
 

  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 cup Berry Superfine Sugar
  • 1/8 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1 Drop Lavender Pure Essential Oil Lavandula angustifolia

Instructions
 

  • Place the egg whites in a small bowl, and sprinkle cream of tartar over them.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat at high speed until the egg whites have soft peaks.
  • Stir in 1 drop of pure lavender essential oil.
  • Add sugar a spoonful at a time, beating after each addition until the sugar dissolves and the egg whites are very stiff.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the meringue into a pastry bag and pipe it into rosettes on a lined tray.
  • Bake in the oven for one to two hours until quite dry and meringues sound hollow when gently tapped. Cooking time will vary based on the size of the rosettes you pipe.
  • 250°F in a conventional oven or 225°F in a convection oven.
