7

Make ruffles on the sleeves using ivory royal icing and tip no.101. Start placing the wide end of the tip, pointing the narrow end on top. Hold your piping bag at an angle, keeping the wide end closer to the surface to stick better the icing to it. Squeeze the icing bag using consistent pressure and pipe as you move your wrist up and down to complete the ruffles, making sure they are the same size and distance between until the end.

8

Repeat the process on the neck area, turning the cookie if necessary to complete the ruffles beautifully.

9a

Using the pink petal dust, add it to the ears, cheeks and dress border. Make sure the icing is completely dry before painting and tap off the colour excess from the brush before applying it to avoid colour concentrations.

12b

The pockets and dress borders need a tighter look.

13a

Pipe a few dots around the border to finish the dress.

13b

Draw small dots as eyes using black edible marker.

14

Use orange royal icing buttercream consistency and tip no.8. Hold the carrot horizontal with your fingers by the wider side. Place the piping bag over one of the top sides of it. Turn the bag to a 45 degree angle. Squeeze the icing bag using consistent pressure and move your arm to create a zigzag, starting out with a wider zigzag and finishing it into a small one. Release the pressure at the end to get a nice peak ending.

15

To pipe the mini leaves, place the piping bag over the carrot’s top at 45 degrees. Squeeze the icing bag using consistent pressure and create each leaf, letting the tip do the job.
