  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 90 pieces toothpicks

  1. Wrap the 12-inch styrofoam cone with two layers of plastic wrap.
  2. Position the wrapped cone upright and push a toothpick halfway into the cone starting at the bottom.
  3. Gently place a donut hole onto each toothpick.
  4. Insert the next toothpick near but not touching the previous donut hole and place donut holes on these toothpicks, continuing around in a complete circle to cover the bottom row.
  5. For new rows, tuck the donut holes in between the ones below to fill gaps and maintain a tree shape, continuing upwards until the entire cone is covered.
