Flavorful Menus for Christmas Party Festive December 23, 2009
If your youngster’s got a sweet tooth, why not request his/her best buddies over for an afternoon biscuit embellishing fete? Not only will they have lots of merriment stacking on the multicolored frostings and candy ornamentations, they will have a blast savouring one another’s innovations! You might just begin a new tradition. Lend even more cheer to the holiday time of year with jolly cakes. What would Christmas Eve be sans cookies and milk for Santa? Step it up this December 24th with a few treats for Santa’s crowd like “No Bake” Elf Ball Bites, Reindeer Treats, Christmas Caramel Corn, and Gingerbread Santa Biscuits to make for a happy, prosperous Christmas Eve!
When invited to a holiday party, bringing the host or hostess a present is customary. Give a lot of cookies wrapped creatively by piling them up in a mug, piling them in a homemade Christmas take-out package, or simply stacking them up with a ornamental ribbon. Get crafty in the kitchen by embellishing a festive holiday take-out box for your biscuits or let Santa’s sled function as a jolly holiday cookie container. In a holiday time crunch? Bake a batch of Christmas cupcakes for your host. Holiday festivities are even better when a tray of cakes is on the celebration table! Fix up your popular cupcake recipe and then dress them as reindeer, snowflakes, gingerbread men or any one of these flavorful ideas. Red and green cookies in the figure of a Christmas tree or on a whimsical multi-tiered stand for a plainly merry Christmas festivity.
For parties, put the cake stands and platters on a coffee table, dining table or buffet table. Costume the area with a few stunning candles or by sprinkling dried cranberries or holly berry leaves across the table covering below the cake stands. If you are having your home baked treasures to someone else, or are making them as a gift, wrap them up just like a gift. Local craft shops sell glorious pastry and sweet boxes that are ideal. Also, check sweet boxes, which make for a lovely presentation – they are so gorgeous your receiver will feel bad opening them!
