03 - 3 to 4 tablespoons milk

08 - 1 large foam or cardboard cone (about 12 to 14 inches tall), food-safe or wrapped in parchment

# Directions:
01 - In a bowl, combine powdered sugar with milk, adding milk gradually until a thick but pourable glaze forms. Divide into small bowls and tint each with desired food coloring.
02 - Dip or drizzle each mini donut with colored icing. While the icing is wet, decorate with sprinkles, edible glitter, and assorted candies to mimic Christmas ornaments. Allow the icing to set for 10 to 15 minutes.
03 - Cover the foam or cardboard cone with food-safe wrap or parchment paper to prepare for assembly.
04 - Starting at the base, attach the decorated donuts to the cone using toothpicks, working upwards and overlapping slightly to cover the cone completely.
05 - Insert mini pretzel sticks or chocolate sticks into the top of each donut to resemble ornament hooks or caps.
06 - Optionally, dust the tower with additional edible glitter for a sparkling effect. Present as an edible centerpiece for festive gatherings.
