Made these for coworkers and they loved them! It was time consuming but fun!

I made 30 for my granddaughter's pre-school and 20 for my bereavement group. They were so cute, no one wanted to eat them. After I frosted them, I dipped them in red, yellow and green sugars before putting on the packages. They were gorgeous! I'll definitely keep this idea for another time! Birthdays would be good, too!

These are very easy to make, but I change the gifts on top to something much easier to eat. Soft candy works very, very well.
