Is anyone familiar with Fluffy Boiled Icing?

: I'm wondering if anyone has experience with Boiled Icings. I'd like to know if it keeps well on a cake (a couple of days). I have read that it should be held at room temperature and never refrigerated.

My Mother used to make it a lot, but with a family the size of ours there was never any cake left to keep for the next day...LOL! For our birthdays she would make a yellow cake with a custard filling, iced in fluffy boiled icing and coated with coconut, or a chocolate cake iced with what she called "Seafoam Icing", which was boiled icing made with brown rather than white sugar.

I had a great Aunt that operated a bakery during the late 40's early 50's, and I remember her telling me that all of her Birthday Cakes were iced and piped with boiled icing, but I don't know how far ahead she worked.
