Preheat the oven to 190°C, 170°C, 375°F, gas mark 5. Use some of the melted butter to grease 12 madeleine mould tin. Measure 50ml of the remaining butter and set aside to cool
Whisk the egg and caster sugar until the mixture is very thick and mousse-like, and the beaters when lifted out of the batter leave a clear trail.
Sift the flour on to the batter mix and fold gently in. Then fold in the orange zest and rose water (if using) and the cooled melted butter
Fill each madeleine mould with the mixture and bake for 7-8 minutes. Turn out onto a cooling rack
Sieve the icing sugar into a small bowl and add a few drops boiling water, stir into a smooth icing. Add a few drops pink food colouring and stir until a pale pink is achieved. Spoon the icing over the madelines for an even but not too thick covering.
