Too bad we can't just buff them till they shine, lol.

Now you have put something in my mind! I went through a quick search and couldn't find anything concerning buffing of royal icing - did anybody try this? I imagine it could work. When sugar is slightly heated, it gets very shiny. And using a soft cloth and very fast movement might heat the sugar in the icing the tiniest bit and therefore create a sheen. At least in my theory, and only on flat and very smooth icing... hm... I think I'll try it one of these days and give report.
