When spread on a cake and when done dose it firm up like with normal butter cream. CHELSEA: Yes, this icing does firm up, especially when chilled.

This recipe is really nice! But you do have to work with it quickly. I would recommend putting it in the fridge for a bit, just so it gets a bit firmer.

Method
Put the sugar and the egg whites in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Whisk until it reaches 60°C (140°F) on a sugar thermometer.
Remove from heat and whisk with a electric beater until the mixture has doubled in volume and forms stiff peaks. Gradually add the butter to the cooled meringue mix, beating constantly until the icing is smooth. Fold in vanilla and pipe onto cooled cupcakes immediately.
