Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Apple
• Felt or paper
• 5 Marshmallows
• 5-6 Toothpicks
• 5 Gumdrops
• 6-7 Cloves

1. Select a medium sized apple. Clean the apple, removing the stem and all leaves.

2. Make a collar by cutting a circle from a piece of the felt or paper, and then, using a toothpick, poke a hole directly into the center of the apple.

3. Place a marshmallow on the toothpick until it is immediately next to the apple.

4. Add a gumdrop onto the end of the toothpick once the marshmallow is secured.

5. Select 4 toothpicks to be used as Santa's arms and legs.

6. Slide marshmallows and then gumdrops on each of the toothpicks and then insert the toothpicks on each side of the apple for the arms and legs.

7. Place cloves on the marshmallow head to create a face. Cloves placed down the front of the apple will represent buttons on Santa's Shirt

Tips & Warnings

• Cake decorating candies or cake icing can be used for creating a mouth.
• Adding an additional toothpick in the back of the apple will serve as additional support to aid in keeping the apple stable.
• A small amount of cake icing can be left to harden on the marshmallow face, creating a small beard.
