Eggless Royal Icing – Perfect for Cakes, Cookies & Decorations

A Modern Twist on a Classic Tradition

    The art of cake decorating has always been an integral part of festive baking. Growing up, we never baked cakes at home, but it was a tradition for my dad to buy beautifully iced Christmas cakes from JM & Sons, a beloved bakery in Coimbatore. These cakes were a special treat, with their firm, sweet royal icing and those charming rose-shaped sugar flowers on top. I adored them—not because they were sugary delights, but because they were roses. My love for flowers started early, and even though adulthood has made me a bit more restrained, those sugar roses will always hold a special place in my heart.
