Peppermint Christmas candy wreaths are great crafts to make and eat. You can create a melted peppermint candy wreath or use unopened hard peppermint candies for this project. Here’s how to make a Christmas candy wreath.
Step One
Pre-heat the oven to 250 degrees.
Step Two
Open a bag of hard, round Christmas peppermint candies and open each individual candy piece.
Step Three
Lay the candies around the edge of a pie tin. Make sure that the pieces are about a 1/2 inch from the edge of the tin and that all the pieces touch each other. Put the pie tin onto a cookie sheet.
Step Four
Place the cookie sheet in the oven for 3 to 5 minutes. Watch the candy as it heats. As soon as the candies melt together, remove the tin from the oven.
Step Five
Allow the wreath to cool for 15 minutes.
Step Six
Use a spatula to remove the cooled candy wreath from the pie tin.
Step Seven
Tie a bow with ribbon onto the wreath and a piece of ribbon around the top of the wreath to hang it for decoration.
