Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Legend has it that Marie Antoinette loved meringues so much that she made them for her French court. Maybe this queen's famous words were really, "Let them eat meringues!"
  • tip 2
    For the fluffiest meringues, shape the beaten egg white mixture immediately after beating.
