Marzipan Pumpkins

Yields 15 mini pumpkins.1 (7 ounce) box marzipan*
1 tube yellow food coloring
1 tube red food coloring
Few drops vegetable oil
A few wooden picksKnead a small amount of food coloring into marzipan. You will use approximately 1 part red to 2 parts yellow to get a good pumpkin color.Take a small piece of the tinted marzipan and form a ball. With your little finger, make a small indentation in the top of the marzipan ball.Dip a wooden pick in vegetable oil. This keeps the marzipan from sticking to it. Starting at the ball`s North Pole, press the wooden pick`s side in gently from pole to pole to make pumpkin "creases."For a final touch, add some tiny stems cut from stalks of mint or other non-toxic plant.Use marzipan pumpkins as place card holders for your fall festival and Thanksgiving dinners.
