How Do I Get Royal Icing To Dry Quickly!?!

I have my Wilton class in an hour and need my royal icing to dry. Any quick dry tips that really work well?
Thanks!

Kinda hard to get it to dry that quickly however what I have done to help speed up the process was to put it in the oven with ONLY the oven light on.
I've heard of food dehydrators, but I think that takes a little while. Maybe a hair dryer on low heat?
You can use a heat lamp placed above the items to dry (or a spot light that produces some heat). I've done this myself and have had items dry within hours. Hope I'm in time to help if you haven't found something already to try. Good luck.
I've done:
a) oven set at WARM, door fully shut...dry in short order (15-20 min) w/ no bad results (use this when I too was running late for class and had to have them NOW! in the time it took me to take a quick shower/shave they were done)
b) a portable electric space heater rigged to blow across them...much, much quieter than a hair dryer and far less forceful too. this one good for overnight.
