Icing for Xmas cake

[canasta]

Emergency recipe without raw egg white for daughter's cake. She made a rich fruit cake in shape of Xmas tree, matured nicely but hasn't put marzipan or anything on it yet. She lives in USA so has a bit more time than me in UK!!

Her sister in law is pregnant so cannot have raw egg white.

Only suggestion I can come up with is for marzipan balls to cover cake some in colours (food colouring) to represent baubles...

Anyone got better idea.....

Has she got time to run to the shop to put on ready rolled icing? Works fine for me!

Can't you just use normal Royal Icing (icing sugar lemon juice water??)

[NazNomad]

Marzipan it and dust it with icing sugar.

Boxtops....She can't find ready-rolled icing where she lives in the states

Prudie...My recipe for royal icing has raw egg white (or pasteurised but I don't know if she can find that) without I think it's just glace icing.

Naz...I think that's probably her best option

Thank you for all your suggestions
