Taking Guesses On This Swirl Rose?

Anyone know a tip or link to make these type of roses?

If the link doesn't work, they are wilton small icing roses you buy in a 12 pack for $6. Not the standard rose shape, and not a ribbon roses.
Any guesses?
Those are probably factory made from Wilton...best bet to make yourself with buttercream are these tips depending on size flower you want. I agree modeling chocolate or fondant you could create these too.
I hope this opens...HTH
thanks all... but the "standard" rose or ribbon rose I am good at. I understand these are some mass produced extruded or molded wilton product... yup 104 or similar sizes. This one appears to be some swirl inward to create this closed bud look.
Anyone with success on making something this way?
Those are not hand piped (by a person), but perhaps piped by a machine — all three petals at once. If they were hand-piped roses the center bud would be step 1, followed by a step 2 petal, then the final petal. These steps were completed all at once as you can see with the finished swirling effect. If they weren't machine piped, the petals could have been assembled by hand with a stiff enough consistency product perhaps like rolled buttercream.

That's what the only logical answer in my head. All three petals appear to be piped at once, coming from the middle. It would be cool if you could do that with frosting but you'd need a very special multi opening tip to do that.
Yeah... nice flower effect, just wondering about any "easy" (eyes rolling)" way to do it. 
Thanks for the replies!
