4. When cool enough to handle, work in the coloring, if you are using it, and knead it.
5. Pat out into a square.
6. Separate fondant into equal parts (1 inch squares work really well.).
7. COVER! in a bowl, in a freezer bag, anything so it won't dry out. It gets irritating when it's dried out --
8. Roll each piece between hands till it's nice and smooth.
9. Stick the tails into the fondant.
10. Shape into mice-shapes.
11. Take a tiny bit of fondant, work in the cocoa powder or food coloring to make noses.Pink or brown noses :) your choice!
