Remember "The Perfect 'Stache"? I made 'Stache cupcake toppers out of the leftover
royal icing. I found a great template over at Powder Rooms to lay under wax paper as a guide. Did you know that mustache styles have names? I had no idea! My favorite is The Imperial. Sometimes it's easier to make cupcake toppers out of royal vs. fondant. Piping allows you to make any shape where as fondant it's harder to make uniform pieces unless you have a fondant or cookie cutter.
The Barron
Lay this template under wax paper
Pipe the outline with royal icing
Lay sandwich pick in the middle
Wait 10 minutes then flood & sprinkle with sugar crystals
Let dry 24 hours and then gently peel off wax paper
The royal seeps under the stick so you don't see it when they are pulled from the wax paper
I did have an epic fail trying to make graduation caps out of royal.. Will have to try again when I have some free time
