  1. Gently fold the blue spirulina powder into one portion, the pumpkin fruit powder into another, and the beet root juice powder into the last portion. You’ll have natural blue, orange, and red meringue.
  2. Using a piping bag fitted with a large round tip, pipe various shapes and sizes of goblins onto the prepared baking sheet. Let your imagination run wild!
  3. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 1.5 to 2 hours or until the meringues are crisp and dry (make sure not to let them brown).

  4. After baking and once your meringue goblins have cooled, it’s time to add the finishing touch. Using a mixture of powdered sugar and water, ‘glue’ the candy eyes onto the goblins to give them their charmingly creepy appearance. Happy Halloween!
