Italian meringue is one of the most elegant and versatile preparations in the pastry world. Its shiny, stable and airy texture makes it the perfect base for mousses, tarts, decorations or plated desserts. Traditional Italian meringue is prepared by beating egg whites while slowly incorporating a hot syrup, which makes it firm, shiny and perfect for decorating desserts.

This innovative ingredient offers a superior whipping capacity, exceeding traditional egg white by more than 25%, achieving a greater volume and an even more stable structure.
