Mom Tips
If you prefer, you can between two pieces of plastic and with the help of a rolling pin, roll out the dough to 1 cm in height, cut it out with a cookie cutter or a knife into the desired shape. Wait for it to dry a little and finish by giving it a chocolate bath. Decorate to taste.
Fondant and essence can be found at home/confectionery stores.
