Boiled Seafoam Icing

Directions

1. 1
   Boil sugar and water over low heat until syrup spins a thread. (or get a glass of water, drop syrup into the water, it's done when it solidifies immediately after. This is very important otherwise it won't work).
2. 2
   Take out of the flame immediately otherwise it will turn brown.
3. 3
   Pour very slowly onto stiffly beaten whites and beat until smooth and stiff enough to spread.
4. 4
   Add flavoring.
5. 5
   Spread on cake.
