Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons water
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- gel food color as needed
Instructions
- Line several baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine sugar, water, corn syrup and vanilla. Stir together until the mixture thickens, like the consistency of craft glue. Add more water a 1/4 teaspoon at a time if necessary.
- Divide the mixture into 4 small bowls and tint with food coloring as desired.
- Transfer one of the colors to a pastry bag fitted with a small pastry tip (I recommend #2 size). Pipe thin, long lines onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the other colors.
- Let stand uncovered for several hours or overnight. The stripes should be very firm and easily breakable. Once dry, break into small pieces. Store them in an airtight container.
