Toddler Activities: Candy Tree

1. Frost cone. We did half at a time.
2. Place frosting on the surface the cone will sit on and place cone on it.
3. Pour/sort candies into small dishes or a muffin tin.
4. Stick on the candies. For areas that need more frosting we used a small plastic knife to add more to the back of the candy.
5. Frost other side and add more candies.
6. Let harden.

Christmas Chocolate Tree

This was done using a cone shaped styrofoam found in any craft store, or WalMart craft area. When finished decorating, we put a TBS of frosting on the plate and placed decorated cone onto it. Due to the decorating of the chocolates this is a little trickier and more appropriate for 4+ or an adult to make the designs.

MATERIALS

Styrofoam cone

Mini Chocolates in squares and small rectangles, Small Candies

Designs

We used the flower shape tip and just squeezed it onto the chocolate, the pointed tip for a simple bow, and again the pointed tip for three dots for the snowman. We used a marker to make eyes when dried.
