This is the perfect centerpiece at your holiday get-together and the best thing about it is that it is eatable.—Kathryn Luna, Dana Point, California Ingredients:

15 hard peppermint candies |
15 hard spearmint candies |
19 large red gumdrops |
19 large green gumdrops |
25 to 35 pieces crimped ribbon candy |
23 pieces cut rock candy |
Directions:
