  8. Roll out 1/5 of the uncolored dough about 1 mm thick and 9 cm by 12-15 cm in size (to match the red dough. Roll out 1/6 of the remaining uncolored dough out to 3 cm x 12 to 15 cm (to match the green dough). Set aside the remaining dough..

  15. Wrap tightlly so that there are no gaps. Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze until hard..
