Fondant Christmas Tree - Using Daisy Cutters
A fondant Christmas tree made using a daisy cutter
You Will Need
- Green fondant
- White fondant star
- Glitter spray
- A cocktail stick
- Small set of daisy cutters in three sizes
Note: Add a dab of water / edible glue to each daisy before adding the next one
Cut Out Your Daisies
Roll out your fondant and cut the following:
- 4No Large
- 4No Medium
- 2No Small
Start Stacking - Small Daisies
Using your cocktail stick, start stacking your daisies, in reverse order - always keep cocktail stick in the centre of each piece. Keep one small daisy until the end.
Start with the smallest daisy and place cocktail stick in centre
Next, the Medium Daisies
Once you have added the small daisy, move onto the medium ones.
Keep stacking with the four medium daisies.
Finally the Largest Daisies
Now move onto the biggest four daisies
Topping Off Time
- Place your work onto the surface that you will be drying it out on, with a little parchment paper.
- Gently remove the cocktail stick using a twisting motion.
- Add a dab of water and then add your final small daisy to the top.
- Using a little extra green fondant, make a small, flat-bottomed cone to top off the tree
Add Your Small Star
And Finally, a Little Christmas Magic
Or in this case, a generous sprinkling of edible glitter
Add to Your Cupcake
If you don't wish to add it to a cupcake, you can add them to your Christmas cake or Yule log
