- 12 donuts
- 6 ounces green frosting
- 2 tbsps holiday sprinkles

- 1 roll Fruit By The Foot you should have 2 on-hand just in case you need more
Bows
Cut Fruit by the Foot into 4 inches strips. These will be for the bows and scarves.
Cut 4 inch strips in half the long way so you have two thin strips.
Unwrap one strip and bring the ends together to form the bow base.
Cut about 1/2 from the strip to make the bow knot.
Cut the remaining strip in two equal length parts for the bow bottoms.
Using your scissors, cut a small triangle out of the bowl bottom to make the edges.
Repeat until you have 6 bows.
Scarves
For the scarves, you also use the 4 inches strips.
Cut them in half the long way and fringe the edges with your scissors.
Place around the Gingerbread people; set aside.
Wreaths
Add the star tip, and green frosting to the pastry bag.
Pipe little short spurts of icing into a wreath pattern on all donuts.
Add bows to your wreaths.
Sprinkles donuts with Christmas sprinkles.
Add Pearls and Sixlets to your desired design.
Add gingerbread people and wreath bows.
Add a tiny bit of icing to the Pearls to adhere to the Gingerbread men.
You can use any type of donut you prefer. Cupcakes or cookies could also be used here with similar results.
These donuts last one day for best taste.
You can omit the gingerbread men, but I thought they were cute additions.
