Starting at the bottom and with the largest snowflake, place a dab of piped fondant then stack each snowflake on top of each other in size order.

At the end of the stacking part of my project, I dropped my work, so it doesn't look as good as I had hoped

Using a dab of icing as previous, add a small fondant star to the top.

As i dropped my original tree mid-project, I made another to add here. The new tree is decorated with tiny silver edible ball decorations. You can also use a fondant to make a tinsel-type addition.

I've left the original images in here to show that, well, nobody is perfect, we all make mistakes
