INGREDIENTS
- Cake stand
- 12-in Styrofoam cone
- Holiday Gift Box, or thin cardboard
- Toothpicks
- PEEPS® Brand Marshmallow Trees (approx. 12 trees total)
- Hot glue
- Plastic wrap
- Pre-made, frozen cream puffs
- Edible leaves, or fresh mint/ thyme
- Large red sugar sprinkles
- Powdered Sugar
- Trace the base of your cake stand onto the cardboard, trim to fit onto the stand and attach with tape.
- Hot glue the Styrofoam cone onto the cardboard to create your base, this helps prevent your cone tree from tipping over. Use extreme caution when using hot glue!
- Use plastic wrap to cover your cone and smooth out the surface.
- Stick a toothpick into the cone, followed by a cream puff. If the toothpick is too long, you can break them in half and insert them with the pointy side facing outwards.
- Repeat with our desired pattern of cream puffs and PEEPS® Marshmallow Trees.
