Although, you can buy a bag of it from local store, nothing beats the feeling of creating something by your hands. Moreover, it will surely make you a superhero to your kids.
What you need:
- Powdered sugar
- Marshmallows
- 3 types of food dye
- A large bowl
Start by putting 4 cups of marshmallow into a large bowl and add 2 tbps of water. Pop into the microwave for a minute or until the marshmallow has melted. Mix it with rubber spatula until smooth texture is achieved.
Add 4 cups of powdered sugar and mix until you can't mix no more. Sprinkle powdered sugar on the flat surface and start kneading the dough until it looks like a fat cylinder. Separate the dough into three parts.
Grab one part and add food coloring and start kneading again. It may take a few hours to achieve a colored dough. Repeat the step on other parts of dough by using the two remaining food dyes.
Cut the dough into half and roll it out creating a long snake. Do the same with other colors. Then, line the colors next to each other. It is alright if they stick to each other. If they don't, you should add a bit of water on their sides.
Start cutting the strips into desired shape. In this tutorial, candy corn is shaped into triangles.
And you are done! Have a taste of your hard word.
