The Gift Of Coffee




This is a gift for the coffee drinker that likes their coffee flavored.  The packaging makes this gifts extra fancy.

The first step is to wash your ornament and let it dry. This plastic ornament was staped on using Stazon black.  It was colored with copic markers.  Then white Stazon was used for the stenciling and snowflakes. Bling was added to the center of the snowflakes.  Pine boughs, pinecones and ribbon was added for decoration.



While it is drying, here is the recipe:

Chocolate Mint Coffee

2 8inch candy canes
1 cup coffee creamer
1 cup instant coffee
1/2 cup sugar
2 TBSP cocoa

Blend the candy canes into a fine powder.  Mix all the ingredients and store in an airtight container.  When ready to use, mix 2 to 3 TBSP mix to 8 oz hot water.

This can be made sugar free by using a sugar substitute and sugar free candy canes.  Using Cherry, Blueberry or Butterscotch candy canes changes the flavor.

This is the perfect little gift and the packaging rocks!
