Sisters Know Best got together with mom this past weekend and while talking one night we made this little project – Candy Themed Christmas Decoration. It required little effort while we rambled on about life. FUN! These would look great on top of a cake or cupcakes, squiggled around a table or in a candy dish.
Okay, here we go. There is really no wrong way to make these. The colors look wonderful and they are such a cute idea that your guests will love them!
- Peanut M&M’s
- Mike & Ike’s (Green Only)
- Green Icing
- Sharp Knife
- Cup of Hot Water
- One Paper Towel
- One piece of Wax Paper (Optional)
Directions:
This is one of the easiest things you will ever do. Ready?
Separate green Mike & Ike’s from the rest of the colors.
Put sharp knife in hot water for a few seconds. Wipe dry with paper towel.
Slice the Mike & Ike’s in half.
Firmly press the cut side of the Mike & Ike against the fattest end of the Peanut M&M.
Use green icing to draw out a string for the lights.
Place the green part of the Christmas Lights on the line of green icing.
Decoration Ideas:
- Draw a line of icing along the food table at a holiday party.
- Draw a line of icing along the side of a cake and “hand” the lights on the edges of the cake and top of it.
- Decorate cupcakes with a small line or single Christmas light.
- Fill a candy bowl full of them for a sweet snack.
