Icing Recipe:

Ingredients:

The measurements below make a very small amount of icing. We've done this because you may want to make lots of small batches of icing using different colors. Use the measurements as a guide and make as much or as little as you need.

2 tablespoons icing sugar
2 teaspoons water
2drops food coloring of choice

Directions:

Place the icing sugar, water and food coloring in a bowl and beat well using a hand-held electric mixer.

When the mixture is smooth and creamy (but not runny) place a small dollop on each fairy cake using a spoon.

Swirl the spoon around to get a round button-type shape.
