Christmas Lollipop
You Will Need (makes 1 lollipop):
2 paper plates
Your favorite types of candy (Small pieces)
Plastic stick or similar
Thin Colored Ribbon
Glue
Tape
Method:
1. Place a tiny bit of glue on the end of the plastic stick to secure the end of the ribbon.
2. Wind the ribbon around the stick to create a candy cane effect. When you reach the end of the stick, trim the ribbon and glue it to the top of the stick.
3. Take one of your plates keeping it the right way up and place the stick on top of the plate so that 1/3 - 1/4 of the stick is in the center.
4. Tape the stick to the edge of the plate.
5. Fill the plate with your favorite candy.
6. Tape the other plate upside town to the candy filled plate to encase the treats - make sure it is nice and secure!
7. Take the cellophane/clear plastic and rest the plate on top. You should have approx. 2 inches extra beneath the plate.
8. Now, make sure you have equal plastic either side of the top of your lollipop head.
9. Fold over the plastic to cover your lollipop head and bring it together under the plates to make a wrapped lollipop effect.
10. Tie more ribbon underneath the "lollipop" to secure the clear wrap.
Add some creative Christmas cheer to your lollipops by making them into Snowman heads or Father Christmas!
You don't have to use a Christmas theme - you can decorate your plates and lollipop with any number of colors, sparkles, stickers and more!
Festive Food:
Ingredients:
Banana
Marshmallow
Strawberries
Small red circular candy
Chocolate Sprinkles
Edible icing
Skewers
Method:
1. Slice your bananas into five pieces (you may not need as many if your bananas are smaller).
2. Slice the bottom of the strawberries off.
3. Cut the marshmallows into slices about 1cm thick.
4. Take your skewers and slide one banana piece on, followed by a marshmallow slice and then a strawberry.
5. Add a much smaller piece of marshmallow to the top to finish the "Santa hat".
6. Use edible icing (or melted chocolate) to stick a red circular candy in the center of the banana for Father Christmas' bright red nose!
7. Finally, add two horizontal chocolate sprinkles above the "nose" so that Santa can see which way to fly over the holidays!
