It's a genuine thing. Mine... aren't as pretty as the ones on the website. How do you flatten the icing? I also could've done a lot more to take a better picture, but I'm kind of tired now.

I'm a little obsessed with baking right now, I just never thought to take photographs of what I was baking before.
