Tips for some fun festive foods

The start of December is here which means Christmas is only a few weeks away! Decorations are starting to go up and the Christmas adverts are out in force. Christmas can be a stressful time with all the planning so we have put together a few festive food ideas that are simple and sure to please everyone.

Pizza may not sound that festive but it can be if you get a little creative. When making your pizza from scratch use some Christmas cookie cutters to cut your pizza dough into a festive shape before adding the toppings.

Cheesy puff pastry always goes down a treat so why not create them into star shapes to fit with the festive theme.

If your making your own whipped cream then freeze some on a baking tray and when your wanting a nice hot chocolate on a cold day or evening use a cookie cutter to create festive whipped cream treats.

Don’t want to buy any more biscuit cutters? Then a gingerbread man cutter can also make a reindeer head when turned upside down, just draw on the reindeer features with icing.

To make cornflake wreaths just add green food colouring to the melted marshmallow mixture then on a baking tray spoon the mixture into the wreath shape and top with some red candy.
