Well.... Another great idea I found on the site ~ I Am Mommy ~ were these royal icing cupcake toppers!! I searched everywhere trying to find something just right to use for my cupcakes and when I came across these I knew I had to try.
So I printed off a pic of what they were supposed to look like, the recipe on how to make royal icing and a bunch of sheets of the roses to pipe.

I taped the sheets with the roses to the counter and then taped a sheet of parchment paper over them.

Then I made the frosting according to the directions found on the Wilton website, separated it and then added a drop of pink to one bowl and a drop of green to the other. And when I say a drop I mean it! That's all it needed. Unless, of course, you want hot pink roses which I did not. :)

After that, I just filled my two bags and piped out the roses... :)

I just let them dry overnight and the next morning.... Wallah!!

p.s. I can not say enough great things about the site ~ I Am Mommy ~ She doesn't know me and has never even heard of me. I am just telling you this because I just LOVE her site and all her creative desserts!! :))
p.p.s If you decide to attempt to make these just know that they are VERY fragile. Handle with care!! Luckily I made plenty because the afternoon of the party when I was putting out all the cupcakes and sticking them into them I was just breaking them one after the other and freaking out just a little bit.. :))
