Hand over the dishes with hot water and lay the contents on a flat plate. You should get a delicacy semicircular shape. Attach the eye, mouth and nose with a variety of chewy candies, marmalade or pieces of pastilles to the preparation, and fasten them to the jelly with small chopsticks (you can use toothpicks for this purpose). And carefully insert the canape from above. For children, it is quite possible to call it an "alien" who flew from a distant planet to treat them with "cosmic sweets." No one can refuse such a treat.
