Prep Tips

Glue – You can use craft glue for this project, or even hot glue. Since you’re just using a dab, the glue won’t be enough to melt the chocolate. Another option for attaching the candy pieces together is to use tape, or scrapbooking square tape (which is double-sided and peels off in perfect little square pieces).
Toppers – We used a miniature star sticker for the tree toppers, but they look really cute without them too. The paper plume of the Hershey’s Kiss looks like a festive tree topper! Other ideas could be large pieces of holiday confetti or sequins.
