These ready-to-print penguin candy bar wrappers add a unique twist to store-bought candy. (Etsy, $3)

• Ready-to-print candy bar wrapper template from Etsy
• Flat, full-sized candy bars such as Hershey’s 1.55 oz. chocolate bars
• Glue

Holiday treats don’t have to equate to junk food. Leanne Bakes’ Santa strawberries are sweet, but still nutritious.

Materials:

• 1 dozen strawberries
• 1 cup whipped cream
• Handful of chocolate sprinkles
• Paring knife
• Large icing tip
• Icing bag

Directions:

1. Remove stem end from strawberry with a paring knife to create a flat base for Santa; then slice opposite end to create a “hat” and set aside.
2. Using a large icing tip, place a large dollop of whipped cream topping on top of the strawberry base and top with strawberry hat — the tip you reserved — topped with a tiny drop of whipped cream as a pom-pom.
3. Place two chocolate sprinkles in the first dollop for Santa’s eyes, and two dots of whipped cream on the front of the strawberry as buttons.
