Edible Penguin Craft

• Black Shoestring Licorice
• Large White Gumdrops
• Orange Jelly Beans or Gumdrops, Halved
• Orange M&Ms or Gumdrops, Halved
• Purple Wafer Candies, Halved
• Royal Icing
• Scissors
• Small White Gumdrops
• Toothpicks

• Use the toothpick to affix one small white gumdrop on top of one large white gumdrop.
• Smaller gumdrop will be the penguin's head and the bigger one will be its body.
• Break a toothpick in half and use the pieces to attach two pieces of halved jellybean or orange gumdrop as the feet below the large gumdrop body of the penguin. It is easier to balance gumdrop than jellybean.
• Use dabs of royal icing to glue two pieces of wafer candy halves as wings to your penguin.
• Sculpt the orange M&M or gumdrop a little to make the beak for the penguin and attach it to the penguin's head (small gumdrop) using royal icing.
• Use two tiny bits of shoestring licorice as eyes of the penguin and affic it using the royal icing.
• Make as many penguins as you like but there should be at least one for each member of family.
