How Do You Decorate A Christmas Tree With Candy?
Using sweets to decorate during the holidays brings a child-like element to the season while filling the air with delicious scents. Gingerbread houses and candy canes bring this sugary motif alive; learn how to decorate your Christmas tree with candy and sweets. Hang candy canes and other peppermint pleasures from the branches of your tree for a sweet red and white effect. String caramel corn, gum drops, caramels, dried candied fruit or other soft candies along a string to use as a garland about the tree. Pin varieties of candies to a Styrofoam sphere, covering all sides of the ball. String an ornament hanger to the ball and have a three-dimensional candy ball. Make popcorn balls and add a ribbon or string to make the crunchy balls into ornaments. The light color will contrast nicely with the dark tree. Bake cookies. Gingerbread or shortbread cookies are ideal. Use cookie cutters to shape your cookies. Use the end of a pencil or pen to create a small hole at the top of each cookie befo
