I have a bride who wants this cake with the small impression. I tried using my impression mat, on overlapped it to get a second set of impressions, did not work out. Any suggestions? Anyone seen and impression mat this small.

TIA

I see a texture on the icing but no diamond impression. That looks like bc or royal icing dots that were piped on or fondant cut out with a small round tip.

I would think you could use some kind of screen (food-safe, of course) rather than an impression mat. And then as others have said, pipe on top of that.

I see what you are talking about and wonder if it isn't a piece of metal impression mat like used in clay making products. When I was looking at AC Moore this weekend, I was in the clay aisle and saw some metal sheets (like maybe 4x6) that had different designs. Maybe the scale texture in this one:
