Add a bit of pink coloring and mix it a bit for a lovely equal color. Carefully fold the icing sugar and cornflower into the mix. Put this in a piping bag with nozzle # 1A and make two circles. Start in the middle and work in rounds till the circles are completely filled. Smooth the cirkles with a spatula if necessary and place the meringue slices in the oven.
