English royal icing over-piping has been around since 1900, the technique fell into the background in the late 80’s
with the arrival and popularity of smooth fondant. The beauty of intricately piped details, scrolls and swags
was almost a lost art. Luckily, Martha Stewart has been an influential in bring back the technique.

Bake, cool, and cover your cookies 1-day prior to decorating.
You can pipe your toothpick roses days ahead..I keep a container of toothpick roses in a variety of colours,
