Making the Santas
Day 1
Bake the Gingerbread Spice Loaf according to recipe. Let cool over night.
Day 2
Mix 500g of the Loaf with Butter & Cream Cheese until well blended
Shape the batter into balls and put on a baking sheet. Place in the fridge overnight
Day 3
Roll out Pink Marzipan. Cut out rounds three times the size of the balls.
Wrap Marzipan around a cake ball and roll it with your hands until it fits snugly around each ball.
Make Santa hats out of the Red Marzipan. Put on top of each ball. (I glued mine with a kind of liquid sugar)
Make a small indentation just under the hat.
Roll a very small ball of Pink Marzipan as nose and place (or glue) just under hat.
These little guys are sooo cool !!!
