Medium

In a bowl, mix the powdered sugar with the lemon juice; divide the powdered sugar mixture into ziplock bags and add a different food coloring to each one, close and rub with your hands to mix; the color can be as intense as you want, so the amount will depend on you, then set aside. Melt the dark chocolate and the white chocolate. Add the melted dark chocolate to half of the cereal and mix until completely coated; repeat the step with the white chocolate and the other half of the cereal and set aside. Then, rub a little oil on your hands and place a large spoonful of cereal in them. Shape the skull with your hands, manipulating it as necessary to achieve it. Refrigerate. Once the skull is cold, finish shaping it with a thick stick that you have at home. Decorate with colored icing, marigold petals, and colored sugar.
