Sugar Mice

1 Egg White
450g (1lb) Icing Sugar
Food Colouring

Beat the egg white until frothy but not stiff.
Sieve the icing, adding enough to produce a fairly stiff mixture.
Add a few drops of the food colouring (flavourings can also be added at this stage if required).
Knead the mixture in to a firm paste and divide into 12 - 16 pieces.
Roll into oval shapes with making one end pointed to form a nose, pinch up two small pieces to produce ears.
Eyes can be formed using silver balls or currants, the tail can be made from string.
Place the mice onto parchment or silicon paper, place in a warm place to dry for 24 hours.
Store in an airtight container.
