The traditional recipe for royal icing has eggs but to make it ideal for the Indian market, Prachi developed an egg-free product of royal icing (Vegan Royal Icing), in association with an Indian company called "Sugarin".
The planning and preparation took a lot of time as it needed about 1,500 pieces to demonstrate the Cathedral. Deb is known for making a maximum number of egg-free, vegan royal icing structures meticulously piped by hand.
