Candy Cornucopia
I hope this post isn't too soon for everyone. We had beautiful fall-like weather here this weekend and it got me thinking of all things FALL! As you know, it is my absolute favorite time of year. The vibrant colors and cooler temps bring new energy with them.
This candy cornucopia is one of the cutest things I've seen in a while! I couldn't wait til September to share it with you. What a fun activity this would be for kids. These would make great favors for a fall themed shower or party too.
How-to:
Heat water in a teakettle, and put pointed end of a sugar cone into spout. Let steam until softened, about 1 minute. Gently curve end 1/2 inch from tip; hold for 15 seconds. Steam 1 side of cone's open end; press to flatten (so cone won't roll). Let cool until set. Dip edge in melted white chocolate, and roll in chopped pistachios.
Refrigerate until set. Fill with jelly beans and serve, or store in a covered container in a cool, dry place for up to 2 days.
