Notes

  • Create different sized trees by cutting ice cream sugar cones to size. To trim, use a wet brush to dampen the wide end of the cones with water. Only dampen the part to be trimmed. Use a knife to cut along dampened line. Let the cone dry completely before decorating.
  • For ornaments, pipe dots using different colors of icing, or add nonpareils or Sugar Pearls Sprinkles.
  • Finish the tree by adding a Gold Star Sprinkle on top.
