Christmas Decorations Made from Almond Fondant

Ingredients

Almond fondant (green, red, white, black, etc.) to taste
Fondant icing (optional, for making white snowmen) to taste
Powdered sugar (sifted on tree for snow) a pinch
Powdered cane sugar (for preventing sticking) a pinch

Instructions

1

Holly Leaves

Roll out green fondant on a sugar-dusted work surface. Cut leaf shapes using a knife or template. Score veins on a foam rubber pad to curl the edges. Use red fondant to make berries.

2

Christmas Tree

Form a green cone. Use scissors to cut V-shaped branches and spread them open. After drying, sift powdered sugar on top to mimic snow.

3

Snowman

Form a white cone-shaped body and cut out arms. Roll a ball for the head. Attach black eyes, buttons, and a carrot nose. Make a scarf and hat, and place snowballs beside it.
