Perhaps a world globe -- to represent how Santa travels the globe delivering presents to kids all over the world!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I always have a round cake, but one year, I covered it in yellow marzipan as usual, but then over the top, put ready made roll-out icing, (white)!. I then cut out a lantern shape with a sharp knife, so that some of the marzipan showed through!. This gave the effect of looking as if the lantern was lit!. You can then stick on a 'Merry Christmas' sign, or plastic holly etc etc!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
If you are pushed for time, a Christmas parcel, tied with real ribbon!. Or if you have more time, a ski slope (cut a square cake at an angle and stick the two bits back together to make the slope) with Santa and other characters skiing down between trees!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
What about a Christmas candle!? If you used a coffee can or some other metal cylinder you could make it 3D and have it standing up!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Try making it look like a stocking and have candy at the top and whipped cream for the fur at the top! That would be cute!Www@FoodAQ@Com
