What Are Rainbow Meringues
Rainbow meringues are light, crisp meringue shells tinted in multiple colors. They are made from whipped egg whites, sugar, and food coloring, then baked low and slow until dry and crisp.
How to Make Rainbow Meringues
Beat egg whites to stiff peaks, gradually add sugar, then divide the mixture and tint each portion with gel food coloring. Pipe small rosettes onto a lined baking sheet and bake at a low temperature until firm and crisp.
Tips and Storage
For best results, use aged egg whites, avoid any yolk or grease, and keep humidity low during baking and drying. Store fully cooled meringues in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their crisp texture. Learn more about meringue basics at https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/meringue
