Ingredients
Method
Lemon Dough
- In a large bowl, mix almond flour, powdered sugar a salt. Then add in egg white and lemon zest and mix until a dough has formed (the texture should be like cookie dough).
- Shape into a rectangle like shape, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit with the rack in the middle of the oven.
- Divide the dough into 6 equal parts. Roll out each part into a 5-inch by 5-inch square. Place on top of a line baking tray. Using a circular cutter. Cut out dough to make each square a different side of a D6 die.
- Bake for about 30 minutes (Not all sides of the die will be able to fit into the oven at once, multiple rounds of baking will be required). Remove from oven and let cool completely before removing from the tray.
Orange Dough
- In a large bowl, mix almond flour, powdered sugar a salt. Then add in egg white and orange zest and mix until a dough has formed (the texture should be like cookie dough).
- Shape into a rectangle like shape, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit with the rack in the middle of the oven.
- Roll out the dough until it is ¼ of an inch thick. Using multiple sized cutters of the same design, cut out 4-6 pieces of each size. (I used a meeple design – these cutters can be found on Etsy). Then cute out rings (4 sizes based off of dice size)
- Bake for about 30 minutes (Not all sides of the pieces will be able to fit into the oven at once, multiple rounds of baking will be required). Remove from oven and let cool completely before removing from tray.
Royal Icing
- In a large bowl, whisk together sugar and egg whites. Mix on low speed to get the powder wet and then increase to a medium-high speed until the mixture fully combines and thickens. (This process should take about 8 minutes). Dye royal icing as desired.
Assembly
- Using the icing, combine the lemon panels to for a die. Reference an actual die to create the pips in the right place with icing. Make sure the icing is set to keep the panels in place.
- Using the icing, dot the feet (bottom) of 4 of the meeples (or whatever shape you are using) and create place one just inside each edge of the cube. Using icing to dot the tops of the shape and place a ring on top.
- Repeat the above step going through each color icing and using the next size down shape to create a tower.
- Use any extra icing to decorate the die and the shapes!
