marzipan toadstools

Cut the block of marzipan in half. Then, wrap one half in plastic foodwrap and the other half in a small bowl.

Add three drops of colouring to the bowl and mix it in with your fingers. Then , break the marzipan in to eight pieces.

Roll each piece into a ball , then squash them to make toadstool shapes. Press your thumb into the bottom to make a hollow.

Unwrap the other half of the marzipan. To make spots , break off a third of the marzipan and roll it into lots of little balls.

Press several little balls onto each toadstool. Then , break the remaining piece of marzipan into eight pieces.

Roll each piece between your fingers to make a stalk. Then , press a red top onto each stalk to complete the toadstool.
