Beautify Your Dia De Los Muertos Altar with these easy to make Sugar Skulls
Authentic Sugar Skulls are an essential component for Day of the Dead Celebrations but boy are they messy and time consuming to make yourself! This DIY guide will have you making stunning sugar skulls in less than an hour.
Here is what you will need:
Sugar Skull Mold (candy molds like this work perfectly)
6 cups of Sugar -you may want to double the recipe depending on the size of the mold you are using
2 egg whites- you may need to double this if your mold is extra large
Instructions:
First you will want to mix your sugar and egg whites together. It should feel like wet sand when it’s ready. Some recipes call for meringue powder but I find this recipe to be more cost effective and MUCH quicker.
I’m certain this will quickly become one of your favorite Autumn activities!
The design possibilities are endless. I am excited to see what you come up with. Please share your work with me!
