Don't throw away your paper party decor... eat it instead!
✨Recipe:
Ingredients:
• Wafer paper
• 1 tbsp water
• 1 tbsp vegetable glycerin
• Food coloring
• Powdered sugar, for dusting
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the water, vegetable glycerin, and a few drops of food coloring. Stir until evenly colored.
2. Lay a sheet of plastic wrap on a clean work surface and place one sheet of wafer paper on top. Using a clean food-safe brush, lightly brush the colored mixture over the entire surface. Flip the wafer paper and repeat on the other side.
3. Place a second sheet of wafer paper directly on top and gently press the two layers together. Brush the exposed side with additional colored mixture, then set aside to dry completely.
4. Repeat the process with additional food coloring to create as many different colors as desired. If any of the finished sheets feel too thin or flexible, layer on additional sheets of wafer paper for extra thickness and structure.
5. Once completely dry, lightly dust both sides of each sheet with powdered sugar to reduce any remaining stickiness. Cut the sheets into strips about 1½ inches wide.
6. Form one strip into a ring and seal the ends together with a small amount of water. Thread the next strip through the first ring before sealing its ends. Continue linking the strips together until your edible paper chain reaches your desired length.
7. Hang it up as a colorful edible decoration, then peel off a ring whenever you're ready for a snack!
