• Meringue
• 3 egg whites
• 1/8 tsp cream of tartar
• 1 tsp corn starch
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• Materials Needed

Steps:

1. To make a meringue, beat eggs with cream of tartar until foamy. Start adding the corn starch, then gradually add sugar, about 1 tablespoon in each addition while constantly beating mixture.

 
2. Continue beating until soft peaks form. The meringue will also start turning a silky white color. Then you'll know it's ready as it looks very stiff.

 
3. Position pastry bag open in a tall glass.
4. Dip toothpick in food coloring.
