I use egg whites in my sugar cookie icing so that when it dries it hardens. I don't know that I would add a lot of egg whites to a cake icing because it will form a crust but if that's what you want then do it. There is a slight chance of salmonella though. Michael's and Walmart sell a powdered egg white product that works great and is safe to use.

If you're making a cream just to put on a cake don't make one with egg whites make one with a whipping cream base.
