Golden Cornflake Treat to Ring in the New Year

You need a special treat to see in the New Year. And a golden cornflake wreath seems to fit the bill beautifully.

Obviously the yield will depend on how big you make your wreaths. Get the children to help out: it’s a fun activity for New Years Eve, especially if the weather is inclement.

You can get edible spray online, from supermarkets and from Hobbycraft in the baking section.
