Edible tree decorations

Take ingredients out of the fridge half an hour before baking. Otherwise, the butter is too hard to beat and eggs take longer to whisk.

Decorating the tree is fun and tasty with these edible decorations. Just one problem though... how long will these treats last on your Christmas tree?

Brilliant baubles (pictured) Sparkling!
Older kids can get creative with the piping bag while little ones will love sprinkling over the edible snowflake lustre dust and white hologram disco dust.

Striking stockings and snowmen Versatile!
Get the little ones to cut star and snowman shapes while older children can learn to pipe the coloured sugar paste. Buy more cutters for different shapes.

Christmas biscuits Also great with a cuppa!
Teach the kids how to mix dough and even roll it. They can create different shapes with the biscuit cutter and decorate with icing and silver balls.

Vanilla-spiced orange and gingerbread cookies Bauble ideas!
Make three different cookie flavours for these edible baubles. While you concentrate on the ingredients, the kids can help cut and decorate, like adding currants for eyes.
