📝 Preparation Steps
1
Cut paper into twelve 2x11” strips. I suggest you use white paper sheets for this. If you use a roll, do it ahead of time and lay something heavy on top of them to flatten them out, so they don’t roll up on you.
2
Beat powdered sugar, meringue powder, and water until thick and smooth, about ⏱️ 4-5 minutes. If you are making different colors, divide the icing into separate small bowls and color as desired.
meringue powder (see note)2 teaspoonswater2 tablespoons
3
Place each color in a pastry bag or ziploc bag.
4
Snip the corner off of one bag at a time, and pipe small dots of candy onto the prepared paper. Repeat with the second bag. Let dry several hours or overnight. Cut strips into desired lengths and eat.
