Preheat your oven to 200°F (90°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk egg whites in a clean bowl until soft peaks form, then add cream of tartar.
Gradually add granulated sugar, whisking until stiff, glossy peaks form.
Fold in powdered sugar and vanilla extract, adding food coloring if desired.
Pipe meringue onto prepared parchment in tree shapes, layering for dimension.
Bake for about 2 hours until dry to the touch.
Turn off the oven and allow the meringues to cool completely inside.

Ensure all equipment is clean and dry to achieve the best results. Avoid humid conditions when preparing meringue.
