This time I give you a really beautiful craft idea. These are snow flakes make of egg whites and sugar. Make such a pretty ornament for your tree. They can be eaten, but they are pretty hard, so I would use them more for decor. Great as a little gift as well, almost look like a little jewel.
Makes about 60
2 egg whites
4-5 cups of powdered sugar
small silver dragees
- Place the egg whites and powdered sugar in a food processor and beat it on hight speed for 10 minutes.
- The mixture should be very thick. If it is not thick enough, add more powdered sugar.
- Fill the mixture in a piping bag with a thin tip.
- Make a snow flake template in the size you want them to be.
- Put the template on a table and put wax paper on top.
- Follow the template and pipe on all the lines. Make sure the lines are not too thin, as the snow flakes will break very easy.
- Sprinkle with sugar and decorate with the silver dragees.
- Let the snowflakes set for 48 hours. I know it's a long time, but trust me.
- Lift them very carefully of the wax paper.
- If you want to hang then on your tree just tie a thin thread to the snowflakes.
