A festive (and indulgent!) craft
Get yourself in the festive, holiday spirit with this simple (and delicious) edible centerpiece. With so many different Truffle flavours, the possibilities are endless. This is a great craft project to try with the kids, just make sure to have a few extra truffles in case temptation strikes!
Makes: 1 / Difficulty: medium / Time: 60 minutes
Materials
- Lindor Truffles – an 18-inch tree uses about 48 truffles (3 bags)
- 18" foam cone
- Wrapping paper or fabric (preferably matching the colour of your Lindor chocolates)
- Flat head pins
- Cocktail sticks or round toothpicks
- Lindor Truffles – an 18-inch tree uses about 48 truffles (3 bags)
- Scissors
- Tree topper
Steps
1. Wrap the foam cone completely with wrapping paper or fabric. Secure the wrapping paper or fabric with flat head pins, as needed.
2. Starting at the base, insert a cocktail stick into the cone at a 45-degree angle. Place your Lindor truffle on the cocktail stick and position so it’s secure. Make sure the Lindor logo is upright for a clean, streamlined look. Repeat until the entire base is covered.
3. When starting the next row, stagger the cocktail stick placement so the Lindor wings lie in between the Lindor truffles on the row below. Pierce the cone with the cocktail stick and attach the Lindor truffle. Repeat until the entire cone is covered in truffles.
4. For the finishing touch, insert a cocktail stick vertically into the top of the cone and place a Lindor truffle on top. Experiment with different tree toppers to add a bit more drama to this delicious centerpiece.
