Instructions:

STEP 1 Bake 12 gingerbread cupcakes according to package directions.

STEP 2 Let cupcakes cool completely.

STEP 3 Using Cake Mate® Decorating Icing in White, attach tip #12 to pipe a snow cap on each cupcake. Pipe a large dot of icing in the center of each cupcake to create the “snow pile” at the base of the pole.

STEP 4 Insert a peppermint stick in the center of each large dot.

STEP 5 Using Cake Mate® Decorating Icing in White, attach tip #5 to pipe a dot of “snow” on top of each peppermint stick.
