Overpiping (Decorating) On Fondant... What Medium To Use?

Hi Everyone...
Yes... It's me... again!
My friend's wedding cake is due on April 2nd. It will be fondant covered (white). She wants a different decoration on each tier, so I will be piping on top of the fondant. Specifically, one tier will have swirls, one fill have dots, and one will have a band of fondant around it with a plaque with their last-name initial.
What medium do you guys/gals suggest for the overpiping? Royal icing? I want it to be very nice and neat. Clean looking.
Any suggestions will be considered and very much appreciated!
Thanks much! (((Hugs!)))
I'm a b'cream person. That's what I would use. BUT........if you can get your royal to the right consistency for piping & are used to using it, it could be a bit better.......since working w/b'cream on fondant could pose a problem if you make any mistake. Trying to scrape/wipe it off will leave a shiny spot :( Cleaning off "woops" in royal is a bit easier - just let it dry and gently scrape/pick it off.
