Of course, if you don't have time to ice your biscuits (I did, but the kids ate them too fast!!) a nice little dusting of icing sugar will do.
I packaged my star biscuits into a little glass preserving jar. Added a belly band of Hessian Ribbon, Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding and a string of stars punched from Gold Foil card.
Of course, I can't leave you without a little recipe. I hope you enjoy as much as my kids and I did!
Merry Christmas to you and your family xx
