Notes
- To test if the icing is the correct consistency for piping, run a toothpick through the centre of the icing in the bowl. You want the line to disappear slowly. If it doesn't disappear or disappears too slowly, add more water. If it disappears too quickly, add more icing sugar.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- If the dough is too crumbly after being refrigerated, add an extra splash of soy milk. If it's too wet, add more flour.
