Twizzlers:

I thought this would be a simple pull and peel step. It's not! You cannot easily pull these and get the strand in one piece. Here is what I found out works.



First, these come in chucks of nine, a three by three bunch. I took a sharp knife and cut the three sets apart from each other, just a little to get them separated from each other.



Take one set of three and start to pull it away from the other six. Pull carefully and don't just pull, move your hand closer to the bunch and pull, then repet, otherwise they might break. Do this for the last six until you have three separate bunches of three. Now you can, carefully pull the three pieces apart. I ended up getting two bows out of each individual strand. So I only really needed two bunches of 9 total for these cookies.



Fondant:

I'm sorry, I didn't take pictures of making the fondant, but there is nothing to see but a HUGE mess of powdered sugar. I did add in a picture I took with my phone for Instagram.



When I made my fondant, I melted the marshmallows and water and stirred that all up. Then I added in a bunch of green food coloring and a little blue. I just used regular old water based food coloring. I thought it would lose a lot of it's green because of all of the powdered sugar, but it didn't. I would still make the melted marshmallows a little darker than you want. Then mix your green melted marshmallows with your powdered sugar like the directions say. I made mine the night before so I would have it all ready to use. Don't store it in the fridge. I did and it gets hard and really wet and weird. Just wrap it up and keep it in a dry space.



Cookies:

This should be the easiest. Make your cookie dough.



Roll out the dough and cut out your wreaths using your two size cookie cutters.



Bake accordingly. (I think I did about 10-11 minutes for these)



Let cool. Now you are all ready to decorate!
