Instructions: To make dough, whisk together egg white powder and water until foamy. Add remaining ingredients, except cornstarch. Mix until a firm dough forms. Pour 1 cup cornstarch into a wide, shallow pan. Knead sugar dough in cornstarch until dough becomes smooth and pliable. Roll dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled through. Shape dough into balls, using more cornstarch as needed, and then into skull shapes. Use toothpicks and other tools to make eye and nose sockets, and the traditional big teeth.

To prepare icing, whisk together egg white powder and water. Stir in powdered sugar. Divide mixture into two bowls. To one bowl, add red food coloring and cinnamon extract. To the other, add blue food coloring and peppermint extract.

Place icings into separate pastry bags and decorate skulls. Set skulls aside to dry for several hours.
