1. Pour the 250 g of flour and 125 g of butter cut into pieces into a bowl and mix with your fingers. The paste should look and feel like sand.

2. Add the pinch of salt and 125 g of caster sugar. Mix with your fingers, add the egg and mix again. You get a ball of dough.

3. Separate your dough into several bowls and add the food colourings. Add your colour gradually until you get the colour you want.

7. Bake for 10 min at 180 °C. Let it cool down.
