Perfect for a baby shower or kid’s birthday celebration, these colorful meringues are surprisingly easy to make. They are also a great, sweet alternative to really heavy desserts. Toy stores offer endless inspiration for recipe presentations and serving props. We baked these whimsical shapes directly onto long wooden skewers like lollipops so that we could arrange them easily into the toy box pictured. You could also pipe out flower shapes onto the skewers and arrange them like flowers in a vase or skip the skewers all together and simply serve the meringues on a cookie tray. Serves 10 to 12 Ingredients: - 24 to 36 wooden skewers - 8 large egg whites - 1⁄2 teaspoon table salt - 1⁄2 teaspoon cream of tartar - 2 cups plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar - 4 different food coloring of choice
