( u may not need all or u may need a little more ) just check consistency. needs to b just firm enough to pipe. Put the icing into piping bag and in the fridge for at least half an hour before using it.

Wen u ready to bake , pipe on icing over buns in a spiral shape just over the top and a bit on the sides. Bake on 200 degrees for between 12- 15mins
