In addition, you can also involve your children in this process.
Eggs need to be beaten. Mix the almonds, sugar, powdered sugar and lemon juice thoroughly and add the beaten eggs. Knead the dough. When kneading, divide the dough into parts and enter the desired dyes. The dough should be homogeneous, elastic, but soft. Now it's time for fantasies, sculpt different and colorful figures! Use molds to cut out figures, for example, leaves. To make apples, you need to roll small red balls, insert leaves or twigs. The figures can be covered with icing sugar. Strawberries can be rolled in colored granulated sugar. It will be easy to make bananas or even whole bunches of bananas. Oranges also turn out like real ones if you roll them on the surface of the grater.
If you have more time and experience, make more complex figures of animals and flowers. Decorate cakes with them or just put them beautifully in a basket or on a plate. It will be a pleasant surprise for everyone!
