For the Halloween bones, shape the bones from a tall, thick sponge cake dough and cover with frosting. You can build the spiders out of licorice.
Alternatively, you can make the bones out of meringue mixture:
4 eggs250g sugarPrise of salt
Separate the eggs and beat the egg whites until stiff. Attention: there should be no egg yolk in the egg white! Add half the amount of sugar and a pinch of salt and continue beating at a very slow speed in the food processor. The lower the speed and the longer you mix, the more volume the snow will have. Once the snow is nice and firm, slowly add the remaining sugar by the spoonful. Beat for about 25 minutes, turning the mixer up to a higher speed only in the last minute. Now pipe the snow onto a baking tray, forming the bones. Now pre-bake the mixture at 120 degrees hot air for about 10 minutes and then let it bake for another 3-4 hours at 60 degrees. The meringues should not turn brown. It is best to let them dry out further overnight in the oven.
