Helen,
I never did see rosettes being made, all we did was the malasadas. I come from the Big Island of Hawaii (different island from Oahu) and malasadas is a big thing whenever there are fundraisers especially the Catholic churches. There is one Drive Inn in Honokaa, HI that makes and sells good malasadas. They even sell a small pack of ingredients and instructions to make them. My expertise is stone oven bread. I make Portuguese white bread and sweet bread. For taste you can’t beat the stone oven.

Below is a link showing the iron that my Mom used to make the rosettes.

Thanks, Margaret! Do you know of a specific dough cutting implement (perhaps similar to a cookie cutter) that's used to create specific shape? Are there a certain number of flower-petals, or is the item circular, perhaps with a scalloped edge? If someone can have better luck finding an image online of either "Rosas do Egipto" or the cutting implement, I'd be most grateful, because it's hard for me to translate something I can't picture !
