Hello! I have recently made the switch from ChefMaster to Judee’s Meringue powder. I like the consistency better, but my cookies are bleeding and sticking to the heat seal packages like I’ve never seen! Does Judee’s icing just take longer to dry? Or am I just rushing things. I’ve waited over 24 hours each time.
Pic for attention.

haven’t used it yet but I have seen many people on here say it takes longer to dry
Hi! I’ve tried it and wasn’t impressed. It does take longer to dry making it more prone to color bleed. I use Genies Dream and never have any issues. A dehydrator is also a game changer!
I’ve never dealt with color bleed until I used Judee’s 🙁 I just gave up and switched to Genies dream.
My preference is Genies. Never had a bleed issue (knock on wood)
Never did I think I was going to be a meringue powder snob, but here are my observations:
Wilton’s makes my cookies smell rank. Like wet dog. Taste fine, but the smell is so off putting.
ChefMaster gives my outline piping sooo many clogs, even after sifting.
Judee’s takes too long to dry and has terrible bleeding. But the ingredients are great!
Seems like Genies is the next step! If anyone has encountered any issues with Genies, let me know!
