You should not put egg whites in icing unless you are cooking the icing. The powdered sugar package should have a recipe for regular frosting and whipped cooked frosting (which is the one made with egg whites).
I don't have a package of sugar, but my Betty Crocker cookbook has a recipe for Double Boiler (7 minute) Frosting which you can find on the link below. I've made this many, many times.
NOTE: I see a difference between the recipe on the link and my cookbook:
Their recipe calls for corn syrup and cream of tarter, Betty Crocker's calls for corn syrup OR cream of tarter; also, Betty's doesn't call for the salt.
More information:
Until recent years, it was quite common to make Royal Frosting with raw egg whites beaten very stiff with powdered sugar. These recipes can be found in many cookbooks and magazines (especially the Wilton cake magazines) from the 1970s. This type of frosting is not used to cover cakes but to make hard sugar roses, bells, birds and other cake decorations.

What happens when you put sugar in meringue?
A meringue is a mixture of stiffly beaten egg whites and granulated sugar (or sugar syrup) then cooked. Soft meringue is used as a swirled topping for pies, puddings and other desserts such as baked alaska. It's baked only until the peaks are nicely browned and the valleys golden. Hard meringues begin by being piped onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and rounded. They're then baked at a very low temperature (about 200°F) for as long as 2 hours and left in the turned-off oven until completely dry. Hard meringues often have a center depression that is filled with ice cream, custard, whipped cream and fruit.

Do you have any suggestions for a diabetic cake recipe that includes frosting?
Some suggestions to make a cake for a diabetic would be to use instead of regular sugar, use Splenda instead. I'm not exactly sure how much sugar you can take in so if you need to substitute items such as eggs for egg whites then that would be fine.
