My kids love 'We Bare Bears' and meringues, so I made these for them. They loved these ‘We Bare Bears’ meringue kisses very much, especially the chocolate version. I used cocoa and charcoal powder for the brown and black colours. The recipe is adapted from Two Bites Kitchen into my 'We Bare Bears' meringues.
Recipe (‘We Bare Bears’ meringues)
90g castor sugar
30g water
35g egg whites
25g icing sugar
1. Make sugar syrup by dissolving castor sugar in water under low heat. Keep stirring under the low heat for a few mins till fully dissolved.
2. Whip egg whites with sugar syrup above using an electric mixer till stiff peaks.
3. Mix in icing sugar using the mixer.
4. Divide the batter into 3. Mix in the respective colored powder (cocoa and charcoal), leaving the last plain. *I didn’t take note of how much I added. Just pinch by pinch till I get the desired colour.
5. Transfer the batter into piping bags. For each colour, I had a large tip for piping the body, and a smaller tip for the fine features. Pipe the body first on the parchment paper, followed by the features.
6. Bake at 100°C for 90 min (top, bottom heat, no fan)
7. Allow to cool and remove from the parchment paper.
A little sweet for me, but my kids really loved them. Hope you liked them too!

hello, how did you pipe out the body shape & features??
ReplyDeleteHi! For the body I used a bigger piping tip (around 0.7cm) and features a smaller tip (around 0.2cm). Just pipe the body, follow by the smaller features. Thank you!
