Description: I’m back with a follow-on to my recent 3-D Christmas candelabra cookie! The goal of this “companion” video is to show you exactly how I made the very lifelike, but completely edible decorations on that candelabra, including (1) the curved royal icing and fondant holly leaves; (2) the fondant (or modeling chocolate) holly berries; and (3) the pièce de résistance, the royal icing pine cones! While I’m terribly sorry I didn’t get this video to you in time for Christmas, the good news is: these decorations make great additions to any winter-themed cookie, so you’re sure to get plenty of mileage out of them!

I scaled mine to three different sizes, ranging between ¾ inch to 1 ½ inches in length. Don’t forget to flip the templates and to pipe some mirror images in all sizes, so that you end up with leaves going in different directions.
