    Mix the main ingredients and knead into a smooth, appropriate dough, then pinch off 4 small portions, and add dark cocoa powder, pumpkin powder, purple sweet potato powder, and cactus fruit powder respectively to make colored dough. There should be more of the black dough. (It’s best to also make a piece of blue dough)
