Bring custard to a boil and cook for 2 minutes; whisking constantly. Remove from the heat; whisk in gelatin. To keep it hot; cover with a lid. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan cook sugar with corn syrup and water to 250ยบF/121ยบC. Poor hot syrup in the running foamy egg whites; increasing speed as syrup goes in.
