Fondant Christmas Tree - Snowflake cutter

A step-by-step picture guide on how to make a fondant 

Christmas tree cupcake topper (centre)

using a snowflake cutter

For this you will need:

• White fondant
• A small fondant star
• Glitter spray
• A cocktail stick
• Set of snowflake cutters in three sizes
• Icing sugar / Fondant icing sugar

Note: Add a dab of thick, piped fondant icing to each star before adding the next one

Step 1: Cut out your snowflakes

3No Large

3No Medium

3No Small

Allow to dry a little so they become easier to handle

Step 2: Start stacking

Starting at the bottom and with the largest snowflake, place a dab of piped fondant then stack each snowflake on top of each other in size order.

It was at this point that I dropped my project :-(

so I hope this will still look OK in the images after this

Step 3: Add your small star and sprinkle with some festive magic

Or in this case, a little edible glitter
