    Attach the red nose with a small dab of melted chocolate, holding it in place for about a minute to make sure it stays put!

    2. Add the Eyes

    Flatten two small balls of fondant into discs, then attach black pearls with edible glue. Stick them above the nose with some melted chocolate! (You can also use pre-made eye decorations here, if you want to save a couple steps.)

    3. Shape the Antlers
